'' Τhe Swan Maiden " by John Bauer, 1908

John Bauer, 1913. 

A postage stamp of Lucia, a saint honored yearly in Scandinavia and elsewhere on the morning of 13 December. Wearing a crown-wreath of evergreens with seven lit candles while bringing your family breakfast (as is tradition) is doable if your hair is firmly plaited and the candles are secured and you’ve kept your hair slightly damp from the shower just in case. 

Painted a non-digital painting for once, a troll I made for a friend of mine as a "thank you" for making my dreadlocks looking pretty. :)

Illustration from last year.

I'll try to be more active here this year, got lots of new folklore and horror art coming up. (Pictured; Recolour of an old drawing)
