Alaudine’s Illusion
20” X 24”
Inspired by Grimms “Fitcher’s Bird” for Wayward Fairy Tales, Modern Eden Gallery, CA
“At home the bride was making preparations for the wedding feast, to which she had had the sorcerer’s friends invited. Then she took a skull with grinning teeth, adorned it with jewelry and with a wreath of flowers, carried it to the attic window, and let it look out.
When everything was ready she dipped herself into a barrel of honey, then cut open the bed and rolled around in it until she looked like a strange bird, and no one would have been able to recognize her. Then she walked out of the house.”
