Description
Mother Earth design was kindly donated to Bristol Women’s Voice for use on the mugs by Femke de Jong.
About the Design:
Working with Bristol Women’s Voice was an really fulfilling collaboration for Femke. This design is inspired by the strength and resilience of women, portrayed as embodiments of Mother Earth.
Taking cues from Alphonse Mucha’s timeless Goddess images in ‘the Seasons’, Femke used elements that symbolize and capture the essence of femininity intertwined with the majesty of the natural world and empowering nature of womanhood.
