Anita Star is Spellbound

“This piece is based on the Egyptian Goddess, Isis. Isis was the most venerated goddess in Egypt. She was the mother of Horus the Younger and wife and sister of Osiris. Considered to be the greatest magician of all time, Isis’s accomplishments include bringing Osiris back to life and helping him in becoming a god in the underworld and forcing the god Ra to reveal his secret name to her. Isis is a strong figure in Wiccan beliefs, and her name can be invoked for a great many things, and to Wiccans, certain days in May, June, and December are days of celebrationin her name.



I had this idea sketched out for quite some time, and when Natasha Epperson emailed me with some photos of the strikingly beautiful Anita Star, and I realized that she would be perfect for this piece. I sketched the poses and Natasha was good enough to supply the photography and away I went” -Jason Beam
