~* Wrath *~
Sansa Stark as a harpy. There's a quote I read many years ago in the book capsulating the birth of female wrath: "My skin has turned to porcelain, to Ivory, to steel." ​

​In Estonian myth, Salme rejected the Sun and Moon to marry the oldest son of the Northern Star—choosing steady hope over fleeting gold. 🌌
​Inspired by a book on Rannarootsi folk dresses, I’ve grounded her celestial spirit in the patterns of her ancestors.
​Trust the light that leads you home.

If the horrors persists, so shall we 🌟 In my whimsical art nouveau and art deco era.

I’m finally unlearning the idea that my art is "mediocre." No more chasing stats. Just creating the glittery, safe place I need when the world feels cramped. The Aurora has me wishing I could just rest in the sky for a while. 🌟

According to Hesiod’s Theogony, Pegasus didn’t just appear out of nowhere: he sprang from Medusa’s neck the moment Perseus ended her, born from the very thing that had to be destroyed. A reminder that your greatest opportunities are often trapped inside the very habits you’re scared to end.

Ask and Embla 🌿
The first man and woman according to Norse myth.
Odin and his brothers walked the shore of their newly built Midgard and found two logs washed up by the sea: an ash and an elm. I wanted them to look as outerworldly and ancient as love feels.

~* The princess and the dragon *~

As the quote goes: "the most dangerous woman of all is the one who refuses to rely on your sword to save her, because she carries her own". ⚔️ I drew this inspired by all the brave women out there in the world. Never let the dragon win 🐉 ♥️

~* Bj 581 *~

We will never know her name or life story. She was buried during the later parts of the Iron Age in Birka. Buried with a big armoury and two horses, she was surely someone during her life. In the memory of the world she was walking around it's fields just a moment ago.

~*Father*~

"Svenalde and Tora and Åsa let raise the stone after Björn, their diligent father. God help his spirit and mother of God" - This is not a real text, but almost. It is inspired by Sö 7, a runestone in Södermanland Sweden. I have only changed the names of the children.

Hi, I’m Elin (or Moose). I photograph and draw, inspired by archaeology, mythology, folklore, runes, megaliths, folk art, tarot, and Art Nouveau. 📜🌿
Soon MSc in Archaeology, with BAs in Archaeology & Cultural Heritage. Museum experience and a lifelong obsession with ancient sites.

~*Stranger Things*~

In honour of watching the same show for a decade. I wanted it to have that classical 80's teen adventure book look, that I have myself grown up seeing. No spoilers in the comments :)

Who's your favorite character or season of Stranger Things? 🌹
