Oð Poem

Oð is a Norse God, the husband of Freya. It is said that he traveled far away, and Freya searches for him among the 9 worlds, weeping tears of gold and/or amber. They have a daughter, named Hnossa, and she is so beautiful that her name is used as a word for extremely valuable treasure. I believe that Oð is the god of travel. Here is a poem I wrote for/about him.


Oð

All of us are searching for something.
Our purpose.
Some of us are lucky, and stumble upon our purpose early in life.
I think that these people are rare.
Some of us live on the fringes of our purpose.
We live happy lives, but never reach our full potential.
Some find our purpose late in life, and attack it with gusto,
Throwing caution to the wind.
And still, more of us never find what we are looking for.
If you are of the last group you have two choices:
You can become bitter, because you never found your purpose,
Or you can feel blessed.
You can take joy in the fact that you had the opportunity to take this journey.

Falcon Freya Update #1

This is my first Falcon Freya update. Don't be afraid to tell me how you think it is coming along. I like comments and suggestions, as long as they are CONSTRUCTIVE!

Blessings of Freya,

Aud

Falcon Freya sketch

Here is a sketch that I did at the Frigga blot - it is a layout for my (hopefully) next painting, Falcon Freya!




Hope you all like!

Yet another Freya, War Goddess sketch...

I did another Freya sketch, this one from a really awesome drawing that my friend did. I just loved the pose so much, I HAD to use it. Thanks, Krystina!

Freya, Goddess of Love

Freyja, Goddess of Love by ~audreydc1983 on deviantART

The amorous goddess of sexual love beckons her lover to her bed...
I took artists' license with Brisingamen; it just kept getting more beautiful...so I just rolled with it.
I loved how this one came out. Sorry, all - this one just flew off the shelf, and was sold as soon as it was viewed at Falcon Kindred's Idunna blot on March 07, 2009.
Congratulations, Troy! You are now the proud owner of an Aud painting!

Freya, War Goddess sketch

This is another sketch that will hopefully be used to layout a painting. Either way, it was fun to draw!
