„O Falalda, da du hangest“
„O du Jungfer Königin, da du gangest,
Wenn das deine Mutter wüßte
ihr Herz tät ihr zerspringen."
.
I can literally still hear my Oma reciting those lines from the Grimm fairytale “die Gänsemagd” or “the Goosegirl”. It was my most favorite tale and I made her read it over and over again when I was little. Mostly because I loved Falalda, the talking horse, who’s severed head was mounted on the castle entrance. It’s such a sad and atmospheric tale. I’m going back to Day 2 of folktale week, because the prompt “secret” was too good to miss. This tale circles around a secret so big, it’s almost a character

Darkness. Folktale week number 5.
.
Yep, this is based on beauty and the beast. But it’s the... scary version? I just started out with a black square in my sketchbook, because darkness, and this is what happened. I’m learning a lot this week really pushing myself and getting over the “I’m an imposter” phase of trying new things and getting to the “I’m so excited” phase. Finally. It’s an emotional rollercoaster every time, why do I keep doing this to myself the second I feel like I’ve figured out how to draw...
.
Also I just happen to be talking about the very thing in the most recent @lorelumin podcast. I have a very personal definition of what darkness means, and I attempt to put it into words. Check it out on their page

back to folktale week: smoke
.
this is based on the grimms fairy tale the twelve brothers. it’s a bit too long to post here but a wonderful, weird, and surprisingly violent (can you say being executed by boiling oil and poisonous snakes?! not to mention being burned at the stake) folktale read.
.
still trying to work out some new things. I sort of gave up on the wonderful pan pastels for a whole year and now I’m slowly trying to incorporate their wonderful atmospheric quality back into my work. it’ll probably be a while until I get it right but I’m determined. another stepping stone drawing as it were.

trying something new for #folktaleweek number one: Home!
.
This is definitely not a fave of mine but I feel I learned a lot while making it so I’m posting it here regardless. It’s a stepping stone drawing as I guess I’m calling them now...
