edda-for-dummies: One of this spring’s commissions: Loki and Sigyn She was the weightless bird and the clear spring,she was the secret path and the laughing shrub,she was the drunken and daring summer night.She was bold and laughed out of bounds,for she was the forest’s fair daughter –. — Edith Södergran, from poem “Skogens ljusa dotter” (1929) Sorry for the long hiatus, I had a hectic winter and spring. but now, with the summer weather, it seems like I’m back on track! This was commissioned by @jisabeau, thank you! I had a fun time trying out colours and techniques I don’t use as often with my art, and I really enjoy the end result, all the textures and light. Sigyn is holding in her hands a bunch of young spruce/fir twigs and sorrels/docks; both can be used for adding a nice tangy or acidic taste to foods, and often make me think of spring and summer. -- source link
