Schnabelperchten -Austrian Christmas Folklore – Teal/ Turquoise – Limited Edition Lino Print
“Garrrr Garrr!”
Alongside traditional Alpine Christmas figures such as St Nicholas and the Krampus, there are groups of other figures who come out around the festive season, and this figure focusses on punishing naughty or lazy little girls.
These figures come under the umbrella term “Perchta”, and this design is specifically based on the Austrian variety, the Schnabelperchten. Like the Krampus, she may wear a basket to carry off badly behaved little girls, her scissors are for at the very least threatening to disembowel her quarry, and in the extreme, their use, filling their subject with sawdust and sewing them up.

Human Skull original charcoal drawing
Human skull drawing in charcoal pencil on fine art paper. Part of the magic of this image was the technique used to create the photograph I worked from. I built a dark box especially for this project which allowed me to control light and shadow, then photographed the skull reflected in a black mirror. That gave me the dramatic shadows which highlighted the unique features of this particular skull.
