Life Book Page 2 - Inner & Outer Goddess Archetype

Life Book Page 2 - Inner & Outer Goddess Archetype 

This is page two of my Life Book. Our assignment was two identify two goddesses who portray our qualities. (January is the month of the goddess.) I made my page a foldout page on 140 lb watercolor paper.

Gaia is on the outside of a foldout page because she is my "outer personality" and when opened, Fauna is on the inside as my "inner personality." Then light in the darkness on the back side of the front page where I will write my description. Fauna was sourced by the wonderful artwork of Katrina Sesum.

I'm participating in a second year long online art class called Life Book. (See button at the bottom right.) In this course, we receive two or three assignments each month and create a large page from hot press watercolor paper. At the end of the year all the pages will be assembled into a book. Our first assignment was to make a page with a flap that folded over and then to draw a woman - a goddess. We were then to list all our goddess-like qualities at the side, under the flap. Here is my goddess, the Muse.

I've been working on my Book of Days. Here is my year entry. Her neck piece is the label off the sparkling wine with which we toasted in the new year.
