Finnegan Begin Again: I'm not the only one rethinking goddesses.

10/7/10

I'm not the only one rethinking goddesses.

I keep forgetting to add this link to some very cool and clever artwork. The artist is Terry Strickland and this is her work on myths and fairytales. My favorite is Pandora.

Many thanks to Shanna, who led me to this link. She is a pretty amazing artist herself. Check out her blog capturing skyscapes here.

Coincidentally, have you done anything with the goddess Hina (Polynesian)? There's a dreamlike painting of her by Gauguin.; 10/7/10, 7:40 PM

Margaret said...: I like that they're not over the top or all sappy over sentimental.

Jean: I don't know about Hina. I'll add her to the list. Thanks.; 10/8/10, 6:44 AM

Unknown said...: Aren't there any modern goddesses with names like Jen or Carol? If not, there should be. Let's make some up.; 10/8/10, 7:13 PM

Enjoy!
