Rhiannon
(rhee-AHN-on) from Celtic Rigantona her name translates as "divine" or "Great Queen." She is Goddess of change, movement, and magic. She comforts in times of crisis, loss, and illness. She gives us gifts of tears, forgetfulness (to promote healing), and humor to ease our sufferings in this life and guides us to the next.

The Welsh Goddess Rhiannon was accompanied by three magical birds whose enchanted songs could " awaken the dead and lull the living to sleep". Birds often symbolize the flight of the spirits to the otherworld. They possessed supernatural powers, and throughout Celtic mythology, divine entities frequently shape-shift between human and bird form.

I sat for eleven hours straight painting the castle, lake and shrubs. I started out painting stones on the castle but after five hours and not even half way done I got mad and decided to only make it vague.

I did cheat on the jewels in her gown and crown. I painted two jewels and copied them a gobozillion times and moved them all in place. Yes I'm a cheater!
