This is Amaterasu. She is about beauty and light. She looked into a mirror and saw her true beauty. The green on the bottom represents the rice paddies. Amaterasu had hidden in a cave but the rice paddies missed her light so the other Goddess's gathered around to get her to come back out.
This is Rhiannon. She represents manifesting your clear intentions into reality. She is in a forest and she sometimes rides a white horse or transforms into one.
Truth be told, I don't think I did that great a job with her, but I left her the way she is.
This is all 4 pages to date. I've just started on Jan. I promise myself that as long as I start the page in the month that it is for, I'm doing alright. Now that I have finished 4 of them, I feel like I've got this project under control. I am still debating whether I should finish the edges of the 3 pages I've just done. It really does seem to make a difference, doesn't it?

Denise, these are just beautiful! I really like Rhiannon the best, but they are all lovely. Your beading is full of gorgeous color and texture. Great job!
Hello Denise, I love all your creation for you Goddess page. You do incredible beading on everything. Hug Judy Ps. I have tagged you for the 6 picture meme. Please have a look on my blog. Thanks Judy
Oh, I wish I could hold these! I really like them, they're going to look wonderful all together.
Truth be told, I love them all, these fanciful Godesses, these queens of legend!!! Maybe I shouldn't have a favorite, yet I do... She is Rhiannon. I adore her and her forest and all that she represents. Ah, thank you for introducing me to her!!!

I love your pages, they are really intriguing and I love the stories that are going with them. I love the fact you trusted your work to leave Rhiannon as she is, that is a real skill. Is there a reason for the shape?
If you feel like you are done with them, then don't finish the edges of the other three. Sometime things demand and edge and sometimes it just isn't necessary. I learned that you should feel like you have to do anything that is gonna stress you or "make" you do anything with this project. The are great pages but I don't have a favorite-- I think I am partial to you brooches LOL especially purple ones ROFLOL!!!
Wow, what an achievement!
Considering all you have had going on, you're doing a fabulous job of keeping up! More beautiful pages, I really like the shape and the designs of every single one of them. I want to touch them!
Very nice beadwork. Choosing goddesses I understand but I wonder how you chose the shape you are working with.
I am edging all my pages with the same stitch but mine need an edging to hide the unfinished sides. Your beaded edge is nice but so are the others. Hmmm, what will you decide is best for your pages?
neat stuff Denise you are creating some very cool pages my friend!
Hey Denise am I seeing things or ate there PINK beads in your pages LOL YOu have no idea how often I think of you when I see pink beads LOL
Oh & you're nuts Woman, that Rhiannon is perfect!
Yes, Rhiannon is really attractive, though different from your other pieces.
