Description
Morrigan is the goddess of death in Irish Mythology. I depicted her here snipping the life thread of the baby while the mother begs for mercy. Lilies, crows and vultures are all symbols of death. Done in Copic MarkersRelated content

I was wondering if could use this image for a school project I am working on about Morrigan that will be posted on their website and relate this image (with your name) back to this website or another one you would prefer. Thank you. Avalon

But, she was also the goddess of destruction and war.

I love the sort of semi-medieval, Celtic look this has, it fits nicely. Well done.

I am a great fan of celtic mythology.
Morrigan is a very interesting character, and you paint her very well.
(I don't speak very well english... Sorry! My native language is french. )

She' beautiful, heartless, knows no mercy...
Why does death tear burgeons, when theres sere roses to find.
I've read that on a tomb stone. It was a child's tomb, maybe even not older then the baby you drew. It made me think. I guess I'll never forget this little but bitter rime.

Absolutely beautiful. The whole concept is just amazing.

Wow....a powerful and well-done interpretation. Having the dilemma of the mother and child makes her ruthlessness more personal, somehow, and dramatizes the entire piece. It tells a story now. I love it when pictures do that.

Woow all the detail is amazing. So much flow and decoration for such morbid subject matter. I want to go "oo pretty" even though a baby is about to die. You've definitely captured the dangerous magesty of Morrigan well

Yes! Irish Mythology! I forgot all about Morrigan . . . dunno how i did that
Anyway, I love the gloomy look to it, its awesome. Ive always imagined Morrigan as being sort of aloof, a feeling which you captured flawlessly.
Great job
