I got told this story every time I misbehaved >.< I was so scared and I got teased for being afraid of the 'Butterchurn Witch'.
Russian joy.

I thought this was a tribute to the Ragnarok Online monster. I didn't know it was it's own entity.

I have a weird fascination fixation with Baba Yaga. But she's not Russian, she's Slavic.

if I may say Baba Yaga didn't acutely originate in russia but in Ukraine however the particular Baba Yaga in you portrait is the Russian Baba Yaga. In Ukrainian folklore the Baba Yaga is an old hag with evil powers who lives in a house that has chicken legs.
I do love this picture though I love that you incorporated the children's face adds more reality as well as a story to the picture.

Thats not right... There is no Ukrainian or Russian Baba Yaga. She is the one and only
