GOKSTADSKIPET

The 'Gokstadskipet' ( Or 'Gokstad Ship' ) is a Viking Ship dating back as far as the 9th Century. It was unearthed in a burial mound in Sandefjord, Norway in 1880. It was used as a resting place for a deceased warrior. Besides countless treasures and artefacts, the remains of peacocks, dogs and horses.

My illustration shows a frontal view of the once massive ship, displaying the oars, sails and sea.

LOKI

In Norse Mythology, Loki is a rogue, dervish God who causes mayhem, mischief and despair to his fellow Pantheon. He fathered numerous children; Hel, the wolf Fenrir, the world serpent Jörmungandr and Nari / Narfi. Supposedly, Loki himself was the mother to another child, Sleipnir, whom he birthed himself.

This illustration depics a number of triangles - a shape often related to the Trickster God due to its affiliations with mystery and vexation. It also shows springs of lavender, his signature flower.

ODIN

In Norse and Germanic Mythology, Odin was regarded as the most prominent and revered God in his Pantheon. He is a one-eyed, bearded man who wields the spear Gungnir. He is the leader of the Aesir, and climbed to the top of his Pantheon by sacrificing his amenities and himself in order to gain wisdom. He's also known as the 'All- Father', whom hung himself on Yggdrasil, the world tree in order to learn the Runes.

This illustration is the more simpler of the trio. It simply features a geometric and angled representation of Odin's sacrificed eye, the one traded in order to gain insight and wisdom through sacrifice.
