This painting is an illustration for the 1994 Mythology Calendar, and appears for the month of April.
Gelvasta, the ruler of darkness in Latvian mythology, planted seeds in the center of the earth during the time before the sun came into being. The seeds grew into an enormous, demonic tree with branches so thick and tall that it threatened to cast the world into darkness once again. The sun brought the champion Cesis out of the sea to destroy the tree and restore the sunlight. His enormous power came from his ankle-length hair and magic silver ax. It took Cesis five centuries to complete the task.

The barren islet is her refuge. Yet it dips and bobs and may slide her from it. Her armor protects her. Against what? Herself? The winged eye, the living symbol of ancient gods of many planets, can free her.
