Hey Professor Zero. I collect fantasy style greeting cards that have pictures of mermaids, fairies, sorceresses etc. on them. This picture is on one of the cards in my collection.
My favourite detail, which you can’t see very well because I had to reduce the size of the picture, is the snakes curled around the woman’s staff.
The image is by Kinuko Craft, an artist whose work I love. There are more beautiful pictures at her website at http://www. kycraft.com. It’s from her cover illustration for “The Alphabet of Thorn,” by Patricia A. McKillip–another outstanding woman. ; )
What a beautiful picture!

Dissenter, I also love this image! Who is this? Is this a specific goddess? I did take note of the snakes, which I loved.

Thanks, anuna, I was too lazy the other day to get the card out and find out the artist’s name.
