My Wish for You

At long last, our film “My Wish for You”, the follow up to “A Knock at the Door” is now live! Where “A Knock at the Door” was a valentine for soul, full of passion and joy and playfulness, “My Wish for You” is a lullaby, a blanket for the soul. We live in challenging times. We must remember our inherent magic, and wrap it around us to keep the dreams warm.

Angi Sullins and Silas Toball
Artist | Professional | Varied
United States
Duirwaigh Studios is home to the creative talents of husband-and-wife team Angi Sullins and Silas Toball. They, along with their menagerie of artist, writer and film-making friends, produce products and services that inspire creative consciousness.

From tangible treasures like books, films, and gifts, to the lively inspirations of workshops, and concerts, Duirwaigh specializes in the three E's: enchantment, enlightenment, entertainment.

We believe each product and experience should transport its audience through the portal of wonder and into the limitless realm of soul, where impossible things happen every day. With creative wild abandon and imaginative play, with a belief in the infinite possibilities of the human psyche, with feet on the ground and heads in the stars, we endeavor to knock at the door of the human heart, re-minding ourselves and each other that once upon a time is really here and now.


About Angi & Silas
They’ve been described as “The Dazzling Duo” and if you’ve ever visited their home or dropped by their website for a cup-of-delight, you’ll know why. Angi and Silas are the creative master-minds behind Duirwaigh Studios – an inspired art agency based in bohemian Taos, New Mexico.

After almost a decade of helping visionary artists find their niche, the couple now devotes their time to synergistic collaboration. Silas’s focus is symphonic music composition and graphic arts, while Angi has turned her years as a muse into a thriving public speaking and writing career. Angi’s first book Flaming Muse (2009) is available on the Duirwaigh website. The book, popur with artists and dreamers, is taken from the halls of Mesage from the Muse, Angi's online inspiration portal. [link]

The dynamic duo also create inspirational films together and are the creative team behind A Knock at the Door – the little film that continues to make a big splash on the internet, having been seen by over three million viewers. Prepare to be dazzled! [link]

Wow. I came across your online website a few days ago and was blown away by the beautiful art and positive words. I was so surprised to come across you again on Deviant Art. I recently went back to school for graphic design at age 4o and your art inspired me very much! I wish I could figure out how to make my art into a blog like yours...Just beautiful!

you'll have to ask deviant art why lama batches are more important than the ability to handle preview files vs. print files and better watermark handling. on our site you can find the images with friendlier watermarks and - rest assured the calendars can be enjoyed entirely without a trace of any watermarks! ;-)
