Description

I've always loves the "oak leaf mask" of the Green Man/Green Woman of Celtic Mythology ... and I couldn't resist using it for my rendition of "Jord, Norse Mythology Earth Goddess" piece. Jord is the personification of the primitive, unpoplulated, uncultivated earth. She is the daughter of Nat (Night) and by Odin, the mother of the thunder-god, Thor. After I sketched this out, it was scanned in and completed with a combination of Adobe Illustrator and Adobe Photoshop and alot of love :) Hope you like it!!!

Fabulous artwork and very noteworthy...Your labor of Love certainly shows on this work...Wonderful Theme, color scheme and artistic feel...The quality I adore most about it is the clarity and the non dependency on Photoshop masking/superimposing...This to me draws the line between art and machine generated stuff...Your work is EXCELLENT!
