#santa perla

[giraffe-of-aces]

I just made matching Santa Perla bracelets for me and my sister and she loves them. I plan to make more Pearl inspired jewelry later for her, seeing as Pearl is her favorite Hermit. But for now, these plus the Pearl life bracelet is all we have

----- Back on my Ghost inspired Sausage fanart, this time with Life Eternal. Also it took me so long to do this because I scratched the first version.

My reference for this was a painting by Carl Heinrich Bloch (can't really find the name of the piece)

This was a lot of firsts for me, some different versions below the cut

guys...my Santa Perla is looking a little off

(+sausage and pearl reaction under the fold)

I've been watching pearl's pov of empires and decided to mix that with the whole Martyn saying for us to go crazy drawing him with skirts and dresses (it felt appropriate)

he is a pretty goddess/empress/queen and I love him

To me it always struck me as odd how Santa Perla in Empires has been so heavily associated with sunflowers and gold and light, and yet Pearl herself is very moon-coded.

To me, I've always reconciled this by referring to her in my head as a goddess of duality.

She's a goddess of day AND night. The sun AND moon. Agriculture AND war. Life AND death.

Which led me down the path of thinking of how so many Greek Gods got split into multiple versions of themselves through their epithets (Athena Parthenos, Phoebus Apollo, Aphrodite Ourania, etc.) and how Pearl could have essentially gone through the same thing some time in the thousand years between her death and season 2.

There are essentially two different versions of her, one which represents the lifegiving, warm, goddess of the sun whom Sausage's people seemed to worship, and the darker, unhinged, warlike goddess of the night that we see in cases such as Double Life.

And then you have Sausage, who may very well be the first person in a very long time to worship her for both. To merge the two halves of her faith back into a single deity, as she was so long ago.
