Day 18 #ArtAdventCalendar: my #linocut of Slavic #fairytale Vasilisa the Beautiful with the skull lantern. Before her mother’s death, she gave Vasilisa a wooden doll & told her to keep it secret & with her always & whenever she needed help or comfort to offer the doll food & water & seek her help & the doll would provide. The doll helped her with her grief after her mother’s death. 🧵1/n

1. My Lino block print of Vasilisa the Beautiful as a young woman with a long braid holding the skull on a staff lantern with Baba Yaga’s chicken leg hut with bone fence and forest in the background. Vasilisa is in a red dress with belt, red flowered white blouse and has a long golden braid. The skull lantern glows with yellow light. The hut is brown with glowing windows. The forest is green with black trees and scattered red and yellow mushrooms
