“Finnish Creation Myth”

Olivia C Commini

Digital with texture.

Birth of the world

In the beginning, there was only the Goddess Luonnotar, whose name means ‘Daughter of Nature’. She was becoming bored of being alone in the void of emptiness, so she let herself fall into the primal ocean where she floated aimlessly. The breath of the wind gently caressed her, and the waters of the sea made her fertile. As she floated, a duck swam by looking for a dry place to build her nest and lay her eggs. She came upon the goddess floating in the ocean, and perceived her knee to be a small island. The duck climbed up onto Luonnotar’s knee and laid 3 of her eggs, on which she sat for 3 days. On the end of the third day, Luonnotar felt a horrible burning pain on her knee, and jerked it up violently, tossing the 3 eggs and the duck back into the sea. The eggs did not break, but rather turned into beautiful things. The lower half of the eggs became the bountiful Earth, bringing plants and animals into existence. The upper part of the eggs became the sky, the speckled parts becoming the starry heavens, the dark patches becoming the clouds in the sky and the yolks joining to become the sun.

“Beneath the Surface”

pencil with digital color

This was done for our “One day assignment” in class project. We were given a choice of prompts and had to complete this in six hours of our class. During certain times of the year the veil between our world and the world of the sidhe become very thin, allowing the realities to blend. So we have to hikers in a forest with the fae spying on them.
