The Quack

batlesbo: secondlina: One of my favorite fairy tale figures is Baba Yaga, an old witch who lives in an enchanted forest, rides a mortar instead of a broom, lives in a house with chicken legs and usually has three magical sons. I have an obsession with witches in general, but something about this old Russian spell caster really captures my imagination.  I think one day i’d like to write about the adventures of her youth. How she became powerful and delightfully evil (although she is good in a couple of tales). So, here you go, young Baba Yaga (who would have a different name, since Baba means old woman. Maybe just Yaga?). Isa, that would be AWESOME, as I’m also a Baba Yaga fan, AND your drawing is DELICIOUS!! (have you ever read the one from the book Women Who Run with the Wolves? I recommend it!)
