Freyja's Chariot

So, I have an assignment for Drawing class that I need to make 4 artworks that share a theme. Any medium. So, I chose my favorite, Watercolor and Crayon. This is the Norse goddess, Freyja’s chariot which is pulled by two cats… so I made them two of my cats that I thought would pull my chariot if I were Freyja. The watercolor paper was giving me some problems (with the clouds) but I’m okay with how it turned out. Oh, the runes on the chariot spell out Freyja.

As always, enjoy some progress shots!!


And here is the initial sketch planning it out…

Thanks for looking!!

The clouds may have been tough, but I LOVE how they turned out! Your cats look very cool; love their matching collars. And what a great idea to put Freyja’s name on the chariot.

I don’t believe I have ever had a cat that would pull a chariot. And those cats seem to feel the same way.

But what a great piece! love those clouds!

Fabulous!! I especially like the expressions on the cats’ faces (very cat) and the depth of colour you achieved in the clouds.

Wow! Super cool! Reminds me of The Chariot card from the tarot. I’ve never thought about using watercolor and crayons together. Ingenious. A must try for sure.

Congrats on the feature :star_struck:
