During Quiet January (as it is known in my world) I took on a special commission to create an artwork for a friend's baby based on her name, Persephone – the Greek Goddess of Spring and harvest.
I took inspiration from the Pomegranate mentioned in her story, and surrounded it with a celebration of meadow flowers.
I also felt inspired to try it in two layers. The top (white) layer being outlines and defining shapes, with infills of gold beneath, mounted on mint / turquoise.
Here are my printed templates…
I started by cutting out the top layer…
I also made a timelapse film of myself cutting out the piece…
