How beautiful! Simply stunning! While I don't worship this specific Goddess (I worship Brigid, and then sometimes pray to Gaia and Athena as well), I've heard about her! I think a close sister witch of mine might worship her. ^^

Thank you! I am trying to familiarize myself with as many deities as possible through painting. You really learn a lot!
I want to paint Brigid as well! Was hoping to have it done for Imbolc but it didn't happen unfortunately
