This is beautiful! I love the lips and the hair because they're both styilsitc without seeming flat. In general, the face and head is really well-done; very three dimensional and well-colored, especially the flesh tone. My only critiques of the piece would be that her arm seems slightly short, and the hand on the tree lacks the same volume that her head and torso have.

Great work!

mmm, the warmth of late summer, or one of those golden autumn days just spills out of this. Reminds me of Arthur Rackham's picture of Freyja [link]

Thank you very much for giving her the apples. I have come to the point where it rather irritates me when people speak of Freya having them.
I know it's probably petty and all, but if you are going to draw them or write about them, it's very easy to find out which God/ess has what.

ok, I think I have that out of my system now. LOL :)
You did a great job on this!!! :D

Naw, I totally understand about what you're talking of. A lot of times, of course, the tales were mixed a long time ago (like Sehkmet/Hathor going crazy, killing hoards of people, and then getting drunk on a river of wine, etc), but when it's a lot clearer, yeah. It bugs me.

Haha!

And thank you so much! :)

I know proper spelling, punctuation, and capitalization-- my present carpal tunnel doesn't care about those thigs, however. Please forgive the sloppy typing until I get through this.

Man, I really dig the subdued colour palette, here.
