Goddess of Night

Published:
1.7K Views

Description

This is a photoshoot we did inspired by the Egyptian Goddess Nut (Nuit, Newet, Neuth). Her name is translated to mean 'sky' and she is considered one of the oldest deities among the Egyptian pantheon, with her origins being found on the creation story of Heliopolis. She was originally the goddess of the nighttime sky, but eventually became referred to as simply the sky goddess. (wikipedia)

She's often depicted as blue with many stars on her body. So that was the inspiration for this...I used ALOT of makeup on this, and yes I know it fades a little on the arm so I aplogize. Though its not too noticable in the photos, the makeup actually turned out very shiny. I two different blues...and used it all up as well. Tell me your thoughts. And thank you kindly, Andrea, for being a great sport and an awesome model. ^.^

Simply breathtaking, I've been attempting to find good ideas for doing something similar. There is a fair that happens in my home town every year. My friends and I plan to dress as goddesses from different myths. I intend to go a Nut. I've been thinking of way to the do the costume and such. I have two years to plan it out, I have to say you're work has inspired some ideas for costumes.
