Akashic Energy This piece is rooted in the ancient yew trees that frame the doorway of St Edward’s Church in Stow on the Wold. Known as the Tolkien Door, the trees rise as guardians, their vast roots and branches holding a threshold that feels both earthly and eternal. In this artwork, the doorway is reimagined as a portal into the Akashic Records—the eternal archive of every soul’s journey. It is both a remembrance and an invitation, asking you to pause at the threshold and step through into the light of your own becoming.
Created with Intention, Layered with Spirit Each Eldara print is born from a sacred, intuitive process—created, drawn, and printed in our studio with devotion, presence, and care. The foundation of each piece begins with a richly textured Gelli plate background, formed through slow, meditative layering. We gather seasonal foliage, wildflowers, seed heads, and herbs from our Eldara garden and the surrounding Worcestershire countryside—pressing them gently onto the plate to create intricate, organic impressions that honour nature’s quiet beauty.
Once the botanical layers are complete, we enhance the textures with soft spiritual motifs, using carefully chosen stamps and stencils that echo the image’s intention. Each background carries its own natural tone—subtle colour shifts that reflect the energy and emotion of the piece.
Pen and ink illustrations, drawn by hand, are then printed and transferred onto the surface—merging with the layered textures below to form a unified, soulful composition. The finished piece is then scanned and gently refined, maintaining the rich, textural quality of the original artwork while preparing it for print.
The final artwork bears a distinctive pulled border edge—where the paper lifted from the plate—framed by the clean-cut edge of 300gsm cold-pressed, acid-free, textured watercolour paper, chosen for its timeless feel and strength.
Each print is hand-embossed with the Eldara mark, signed and dated, and released in small, limited editions—to honour the sacred pace of intentional creation.
Available sizes A4 (21 x 29.7 cm) or A3 (29.7 x 42 cm) – Please choose your size in the drop-down menu Standard frame sizes are widely available to frame and mount in your chosen space.
Packaging Enclosed in a compostable Nativia bio-film sleeve with a recycled grey kraft backing board—kind to the Earth and safe for your art. To keep your print looking its best, we recommend displaying it out of direct sunlight and framing it behind glass. Each one is made to last—not just to be seen, but to be felt.
At Eldara, we believe art is a spiritual companion—a silent presence that anchors, soothes, and uplifts. Every print carries the energy of the natural world and the intention of the maker.
