The name Moody and Magical was created several years ago, originally, when I thought I wanted to paint the entireity of the interior of my home all black. I was craving some "depth" in my life. Some meaning, some way to evoke emotion. So the first step in this decision process, naturally, was to create an instagram handle for it- because if I was going to embark on this process, I had to document it publicly, right?! Well, I did not in fact pursue painting everything black.
