SF&F Picture 4 out of 8 by Jennifer Chan.

SciFi and Fantasy Art: Maiden, Mother, Crone

This depicts the three fates, the three faces of the Godess or whatever you might call them. I did this in 1997 when I used Role Play. Not much to this picture... but it's an earlier example of my work.

24 Feb 2000	Nicole Eng	Loading... Aah... Skuld, Verdandi, Urd were three Nordic Goddesses of this theme, I think. Other than smoothing out the lines - I don't think this picture really has anything wrong with it. As a suggestion... I think it would make it more interesting to make every white part (the hair) transparent except for the skin - and use some sort of gradiated cloud/nebula/starsystem image as the background.

Just one thing-- the bangs in the eyes of the maiden force attention away from the left side... you might want to pull those back. It could be done without losing the sense of the picture.
13 Apr 2000	Gareth L. Holden	Loading... Well i still cant see the physical differance in the first 2 faces except for the hair, but they do look like maiden and mother... damn they look differant and perfect but i cant see the differance if you get my drift you have a skill to manipulating the mind my friend...
25 Aug 2001	Amoreena	Loading... I love your art, and yes, they are from a good many religions (including Druid ) including my own (eclectic Wiccan), but I have never seen them depicted anime-style before, nice job!

17 Jul 2003	NightRaven	Loading... The threefold Goddess... I love it... I've seen others, but this one is nice and simplistic. And the blank eyes are nice. I like your works, keep it up. ^_^
