Hel in Black

Nordic Goddess Hel | 2019

Hel in Black, Painter & Photoshop 2014/2019.

Hel, goddess of the Underworld in Norse mythology. Half dead, half alive, rules over Helheim, a realm of cold, hunger and famine where those who die of sickness and of old age go. Carvings on her throne present her siblings: the wolf Fenrir, and the world serpent Jörmungandr, all of them children of the god trickster Loki and giantess Angrboða.

Hel

The older version of Hel's portrait (2014), in clothes more stylized on the Viking Age, wearing a Norse woman's apron held by tortoise brooches. I dressed her black later, in 2019. The clothes and jewelry are not one hundred per cent historically accurate, especially the head dress, but I believe that in a realm of fantasy and mythology gods and goddesses could attire differently to real people of that time.

Painter & Photoshop 2009/2014.

Note - I have retouched her face, prints on the site are the updated version. If you prefer a print of the untouched variant let me know.
