This is a very famous Arthur Rackham illustration. Nice copy, just think the originator deserves credit

Great sketch but... This would represent the Norse Goddess Idunn. She cared and tended the golden apples that gave the norse gods their youth and vitality. But like I said great drawing

I think the apple tree would be more appropriate for Idunn, but what a great pic! I'm glad to see you remembered her gold necklace (most people leave that out.)

I love the movement and the bold lines. The coy expression also is a nice touch. Quite lovely.

Umm.. no offence but isn't she more like Idunna? The Guarder of the Golden Apples? At least that's what this picture made me think of.. no offense...

Many gods and goddesses have alternative spellings or versions of their names.

Hehe...i know the original! So you got inspired by Arthur Rackham?
But i must admit that your face's prettier than the one Rackham drew!

Því bjartara ljósið því dimmari skuggarnir.
The brighter the light, the darker the shadows.
Je heller das Licht, desto dunkler die Schatten.
Waat d'Liicht méi hell ass, emsou méi donkel sin d'Schieter.
Plus la lumière est claire, plus les ombres sont foncées.
Quo clarius lumen, eo obscuriores umbrae.
Cuanto más clara es la luz, más oscuras son las sombras.
Piu' splendente e' la luce, piu' oscure saranno le tenebre.
Ju starkare ljuset, desto mörkare skuggarna.
Jo starkere lyset, jo mørkere de skyggene.
Dess sterkare lyset er, dess mørkare vert skuggane.
Guangxian yue liang, yingzi yue an.
Jo stærkere lyset, desto mørkere skygger.
Kuluma yazeed al dhau sawaad al dhulu yazeed.
Što je svetlo jače, senke su tamnije.
Quanto mais clara é a luz, mais escura é a sombra.
Hoe feller het licht des te donkerder de schaduw.
Hoe feller it ljoch hoe tjusterder it skaad.
Com més clara és la llum, més fosques són les ombres.

This is a wonderful drawing, it has really delicate lines and the hint of cloud in the background is a really nice touch. I have to agree the anatomy is good, and the arms would have been tricky because of the angle and perspective, etc. Actually I just keep staring at it, so I think I'll give in and add it to my favourates.

Absolutely fabulous!
Freya is the one who had a chariot pulled by cats, right?
