Testimonials for Maiden Mother Crone Death: I found in Maiden Mother Crone Death a great community of making dolls together. I loved the intuitive painting technique also. It inspired me for future doll making. The background information in the e-book and other prompts and inspiration were very helpful and inspired me to look further into mythology. It all stimulated my creativity. Thanks! Nancy Bennett Karasik |
Frequently Asked Questions:
|
"Maiden doll, Pandora" She comes from the Pandora story. She is much “prettier” than most dolls I make but since she was reportedly made in the image of the beautiful Athena, I went with “pretty.” …Some versions of the story say she was gifted a golden crown. Others said a garland of flowers for her hair so I gave her both and put the “Maiden Moon” on the front of her crown to tie her into the moon phases… From that point, she diverges from the reported/repeated mythology. You can see that much more positive qualities have spilled out of her jar. The list is not all inclusive, of course, but she gets credit here for many good things. Curiosity was the key to open it and “hope” did NOT stay in the jar. It was also set free and I think we can all attest to the fact that hope lives eternal in our own lives so thank you, Pandora!! Here are some words to describe Erika and this class: Unique, insightful, deep, surprising, creative, artistically fearless! Kathryn Hall My biggest takeaway was about how I can use my dolls, representing the Goddesses, to explore myself, to be honest about what is going on with me, and gain suggestions about how to deal with my feeling and thoughts.
I feel like I now have a "point" to my dollmaking that is all about me. I needed that. My next steps will be to MAKE MORE DOLLS!!! Thank you. You have touched me and taught me more than you will ever know. Jan Calloway Baxter |
