My take on my favorite folklore legend for #100daysofsketching: Sant Jordi!
3/100 #legend
This is an OC I’ve had for 10+ years named Sen, and she is a Kage Onna! This project is heavily steeped in my interest in Japanese folklore. I know a project like this is iffy as I am a white artist but I’ll research the f*** out of it. If I overstep please let me know.
@Helium_Raven @Qingyi33 Ahhh you're a star! 🌟💙

L is for Llamhigyn Y Dwr, a giant water leaping creature from Welsh mythology that drags fishermen to their deaths. The only thing more terrifying for me is trying to pronounce its name.

Niho!
Our Friend of the Week is Japanese Wolf! She's head of a group that looks for interesting things...
In Japanese folklore they were thought of as protectors of travelers!

The Stoor Worm, a huge sea monster, terrorised the West
of #Scotland.
It was killed by burning peat thrust into its liver.
In its death throes, its teeth flew out and become the islands of #Orkney, #Shetland and the #Faroes.
All this was a long time ago.

To roll out the Major Arcana with frames I decided today to show one I think @JessPendley will enjoy. Art by @pidraws, of course.
Fun fact: it’s not technically a horse depicted here. It is a Pooka, a shapeshifting spirit from Celtic folklore.
The answer to this week's #riddle on #FolkloreThursday Thursday is:
Ham-mock
Just the one winner this week. The nimble-witted @LauraFUnderhill 🥇🏆
Congratulations!

#Goldenweek holds Hamamatsu's #Kite #Festival, where 100 professional kites are flown over windy sand dunes. Battling in the sky, using friction to cut their opponents down! Newborn names are written on the kites. For the higher the kite, the healthier the baby! #FolkloreThursday
🌿🎀🌿May Day in Herefordshire... crosses woven from birch & rowan were hung over cottage doors & seed-beds to ward off bad luck & the spells of Witches, also birch trees decorated with red & white ribbons were stood by stables, to protect horses from the Fae.

Additionally it was said that during the night of the 24th of June during the Drăgaica, the Iele (spirits of the forests) would perpetually dance leaving burnt traces around oak trees, while also making those who disturbed their dances mutes for life. #FolkloreThursday
The Drăgaica,a traditional Midsummer fair, has been held for centuries near the Buzau river in Wallachia (paused between 1806-29 because Ottomans burned the city).It is said that whoever did chores on the main day on the 24th of June would be struck by lighting.#FolkloreThursday
