Tale Socks
Description: A mandala featuring the Slavic witch Baba Yaga, her hut on chicken legs surrounded by a fence of human skulls and bones, mushrooms, and her pets (cat, raven, owl). Autumn leaves swirl around her as she flies on her mortar and pestle. Two sayings associated with her and her hut are also written in Russian ("Foo, foo! I smell a a Russian smell!" and the poem to make the hut turn around so that you can enter it).
Description: Inspired by the German folktale "Aschenputtel", and other versions of the Cinderella story. Cinderella stands beneath the trees, with two doves helping her dress for the ball. Her gown is made of silver, gold, precious gems and pearls. An enchanted pumpkin patch surrounds the scene, with four white mice hiding amongst the vines. This is the second illustration in my Fairy Tale Fashion series.
