Moon Child – 5×7 Spiritual Greeting Card by Mark Tisdale.
This spiritual greeting card features a depiction of a moon child. I titled this work “Daughter of the Moon.” There’s a woman nearly in silhouette dancing in the grass before a larger than life moon. There’s a real sense of legends and deeper things to this artwork.
I think a subconscious inspiration to this may have been the Song of Hiawatha by Longfellow. I didn’t specifically think of it but a friend pointed out the connection in this passage which I’m sure I had read at some point in school years ago.
By the shores of Gitche Gumee,
By the shining Big-Sea-Water,
Stood the wigwam of Nokomis,
Daughter of the Moon, Nokomis.
Dark behind it rose the forest,
Rose the black and gloomy pine-trees,
Rose the firs with cones upon them;
Bright before it beat the water,
Beat the clear and sunny water,
Beat the shining Big-Sea-Water.
There the wrinkled old Nokomis
Nursed the little Hiawatha,
Rocked him in his linden cradle,
Bedded soft in moss and rushes.
Safely bound with reindeer sinews;
Stilled his fretful wail by saying,
“Hush! the Naked Bear will hear thee!”
Lulled him into slumber, singing,
“Ewa-yea! my little owlet!
Who is this, that lights the wigwam?
With his great eyes lights the wigwam?
Ewa-yea! my little owlet!”
