Preparation for a midwestern Witches’ Sabbat: I was asked to create the ritual designs on the body of the priest representing the Horned God at this event. The headdress he is wearing, called an “ooser” (pronounced “osser”) is part of the regalia of this office. Indoors he seemed to be a manifestation of caverns like those of Lascaux or Altamira, outdoors he seemed an avatar from a time known more to lore than history.
