This handcrafted linocut print honors the archetype of the Earth Goddess — a divine feminine spirit who births life, nurtures the land, and reminds us of our sacred kinship with the natural world. Perfect for pagan women, folklore lovers, wild herbalists, and those who feel called to re-root into myth, earth, and handmade beauty.

Surrounded by wildflowers and birds, the central figure embodies the power of creation, reciprocity, and resilience. She is inspired by the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) Sky Woman creation story, where a celestial being descends to Earth, bearing seeds that she plants on the back of a great turtle — giving rise to Turtle Island (North America). While rooted in this specific cultural myth, the image also resonates with global goddess traditions and invites all who seek connection to Earth’s sacred story. Details in the print include SkyWoman in my imagination alongside Native North American wildflowers, herbs and plants including: California Poppy, Cattails, Echinacea, Elderberries, Maple seeds, Mesquite, Dandelion, Prickly Pear Cactus, Valerian, and Wild Rose.

Hand printed with Caligo Safewash (non-toxic) Relief Ink on traditional archival Awagami Select Hosho Paper - a cultural treasure from Japan, handcrafted from natural materials with a rustic handmade feel. This artwork makes a powerful addition to any altar, herbalist space, or sacred corner — and a meaningful gift for anyone who honors the wild, wise, and feminine spirit of the land.

Please note: Each print is hand-pulled, making every piece truly one of a kind. Some prints feature more rustic textural markings in the white areas, while others have a cleaner, more minimal black-and-white contrast. If you have a preference for either a more rustic, organic look or a crisp, modern finish, I’m happy to accommodate when possible.
