I wish to create art, photography, and literature with the intention of sharing a different view of the world. A reoccurring theme throughout my work is memento mori, with the intent to bring death positivity into the light. I intend to create with integrity, honor, and humor, and sell small pieces of my soul at affordable prices to those who wish to possess them. If you see something on the site you like and it's not on etsy please reach out.
Harbingers Book Series

My Background
My name is Ashley J Horton (formerly Hansen), but I prefer Ash.
I have published four books under Hansen, and 3 under Horton so far. I am a native of Texas and while my body still resides there, with my wife, one living cat, two ghost cats, and our dog, my soul resides in New Orleans. I am a photographer and an author. I tend to incorporate both into my works. Some of my favorite things include cats, cemeteries, dead things, New Orleans, and Halloween. A reoccurring theme in my works and life is death. My writings are a result of growing up as a queer witch in Texas and being attracted to the strange and unusual. You can follow more of what I'm working on, on patreon
