Hello #transartists 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵
I am Avis, a genderfluid artist. I usually make water colour art, with occasional digital and other media here and there.
Lately, in my art I like to take inspiration from Balkan folklore, especially folk clothing.
A dark, fantastical collection of narrative poems that draw on unique elements of Newfoundland and Labrador culture and folklore. 'Where the Crooked Lighthouse Shines' by @joshuagoudie & Craig Goudie is today's Featured #MaritimeMonday #CanLit in-store! @BreakwaterBooks 💕🇨🇦📚

In Japanese lore, Old Man of the Moon came to Earth as a beggar and asked the animals for food. All gave except for Rabbit, who told him to build a fire, and jumped in. Quickly the Old Man of the Moon pulled Rabbit from the fire and took him to live on the moon.
How the Jade Rabbit joined Chang'e on the Moon in Chinese lore varies by the telling. In some tales, he was hidden in the sleeve of her robe, in others he leapt to the moon. Yet in others he had always been there. #FolkloreSunday
Side note, by Elf, I mean the classic tiny playful creatures from folklore, rather than Santa Elves or Medieval Fantasy Elves. Though they're also all 妖精(Yousei) in Japanese, since they're also all Elves in English .
#FolkloreSunday
Folklore links the hare to the moon, death, rebirth & Easter. Eostre, Celtic goddess of spring, is said to be the namesake of the Christian holiday. For her, hares are sacred messengers, and at the full moon she assumes the shape of one.

The constellation Lepus was named for the Latin word for hare. It's located below the constellation Orion, which was named for the hunter in Greek mythology. Orion has been depicted pursuing Lepus with his hunting dogs, Canis Major & Canis Minor. #FolkloreSunday

Leprechaun
Leprechaun is a folklore character from Irish mythology. The leprechaun also considers other treasures as a guard, which, according to legend, he hides in the depths of the earth and plots from people.

#318 Anastasia & Viy
Anastasia was a dedicated prankster & was very active to the point that one of her nicknames was “little mischief”.
Her companion Viy is supposedly from folklore, but likely it was an invention by Nikolai Gogol, the author of the novella of the same name.
After John Bauer and Gustaf Tenggren, Einar Norelius took the ”Bland tomtar och troll” folklore illustration torch and carried it for more than half a gnomish and trollish century.
Heres something interesting...
@TaylorBeSwift1 brought it to my attention that Onis and Kitsunes are actually enemies in Japanese folklore.
Fade, released in Ch2, wears an Oni mask AND has the same Rift abilities as the Fox Clan.
Could we see them clash in s2?
