goddess

Engraved schist from the late neolithic (4000 to 3000 BC) displaying a mother-godess. The object has been found in Portugal and share a surprisingly ressemblance with Totoro (which is why it caught my eyes in the first place). The plaque is a rectangle, irregularly rounded on the edges and some cracks are running through it in a few places. There is two eyes that are punched through the surface all the way to the back, raised eybrows, some sort of cat-like moustache, hanging arms and a confused expression. It is sketched using basic black Bic ball-pen and a bit of black gouache to deepen some areas.
