Word Wednesday: Mistletoe & Mythology

 

We worked on a watercolour mistletoe tutorial, as we're taking a look at winter foliage this week. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3n_Elvzk_RY

 
We combined the painting with the Norse Myth of Baldur, which gives viking insight into the history of mistletoe (and why it's traditional to kiss when caught underneath.) https://www.storynory.com/the-death-of-baldur/
