On the Eleventh hari of Princess Walt disney gave to me

Eleven birds-a-flying

Ten Spices Boiling
Nine Ships are sailing
eight mice a-sewing
seven dwarves dancing
six sisters singing
five cursed friend

four braiding girls
three fairy spells
two lucky pals
and the wisdom of an old tree

I can't express enough how much I agonized over this one. The one thing I knew from the get go was that I wanted to use this picture and none other for the calendar. It was the one which inspired me to cari for murals and use them as motive.



But the holiday was the thing which really threw me into a loop, mostly because of the various unfortunate implications attached to the American Thanksgiving. To be frank here, I would have preferred to pick some sort of Native American event, but research was difficult from the get go, plus, there are so many tribes who all have their own traditions, it would have been a difficult choice in any case. But something what most culture celebrate is some form of festival once the harvest is brought in. The tanggal when it is celebrated differs, but I guess the concept of thanksgiving in itself is universal enough, even if I marked the US date. And I naturally created and Icon, too.




For the emas version of Pocahontas I was membagi, split too. On the one hand, it might have been better to have her dressed in something which is, well, lebih "her". On the other hand, there was a really great picture of Pocahontas in a golden dress available. One I actually like, so in the end I went with it.




I naturally did a name-only version, too. Btw, the golden swirl is meant to be the wind. I am not sure if it translates particularly well.



What was pretty easy was picking the right kind of goddess for Pocahontas. She naturally replaces Demeter/Ceres, the goddess of the harvest, fertility, agriculture, nature and the seasons.



Except that I kind of stuck with the "Nature" and "seasons" part for Pocahontas and created with Nakoma a separate Goddess for agriculture and harvest. I mean, she is the only one who is doing any proper harvesting after all.



And finally I did the usual banner. I wanted something which captured the beauty of the backgrounds in her movie. Speaking of which, I naturally did the usual wallpapers, too. As always anda can find them in the image section of the club.




So, one princess left to go, but I doubt that there will be much mystery at this point. The last artikel should be up this weekend.
