Cauldron

Size: 30,3 x 22,6 cm

Materials: Watercolour on watercolour paper

Symbol number 100, and the last in the series is a symbol of witchcraft; a Cauldron. It symbolizes the womb and, because of this, it’s a Goddess symbol as well. The cauldron is also a symbol of wisdom, death and rebirth, transmutation, growth, and transformation. And of course hearth and home since it was used to prepare food. A cauldron is also connected to water and the ocean itself was by some cultures thought of as a great cauldron. In some myths, poetic and artistic inspiration came from an otherworldly cauldron. The background texture was created by letting the colours blend on a wet surface.
