Literary Goddesses
This series is about how I imagine it feels like to be different literary characters. Some are free, some are stately. One minute the characters I read about are boisterous and confident, and the next, secluded and self preserving. The billowing fabric surrounding each one is as magical as fairy wings, but also a barrier to the true emotive qualities of each figure. The fabric has multiple functions depending on the figure. While some layers protect and conceal, others accentuate.
