She was made out of 9 flowers by two male magicians, Gwydion and Math, to be the bride of Llew. Blodeuwedd wanted to marry another man named Goronwyn. She had him spear Llew. Gywdion saved him by turning him into an eagle and then turned Blodeuwedd into an owl as punishment. Once a love Goddess, Blodeuwedd is now a Goddess of Death and Wisdom. She is also an older aspect of another Goddess, The White lady, accordingto Maria Gimbutus. Robert Graves speaks of the White Goddess in his poem. Prayers to Blodeuwedd would center around the death of someone, a change in your life, and the naming and healing of your shadow side. As any Dark Goddess, Blodeuwedd transforms you. After hunting all day, the party comes to find themselves at the gates of the castle and Blodeuwedd invites them in. Once Gronw and Blodeuwedd lay their eyes on each other, they fall deeply in love. At the time in which Gronw must depart, they begin to talk of how they can be together forever and Gronw advises Blodeuwedd to determine the means in which her husband could be put to death. After Llew’s return, Blodeuwedd confides her fears of his untimely death to Llew. Llew consoles her by telling her that he can not be easily slain, except by a wound. And the spear wherewith he is struck must be a year in the forming. And he cannot be slain within a house or without, nor can he be slain neither on horseback nor on foot. He can only be slain by making a bath for him by the side of a river, and by putting a roof over the cauldron, and thatching it well and tightly, and bringing a buck, and putting it beside the cauldron. Then if he places one foot on the buck’s back, and the other on the edge of the cauldron, whosoever strikes him will cause his death. Soon after this discourse, Blodeuwedd sends to Gronw Pebyr telling him to begin making the spear. After a year in Photo : Douglas Chambers by Hans Versluis the making, the plan was ready to be launched. Blodeuwedd went to her husband and asked him again about the validity of the method of which he could be killed. To calm her fears, he agreed to show her. Therefore, Blodeuwedd After gaining a National Diploma in Design, Douglas Chambers served his had the scenario he described created and at the moment he had his foot on the edge of the cauldron and his other obligatory two years national service before attending The Royal College of Art foot on the back of the buck, Gronw emerged from the shadows and strikes him with the spear.

When the news of Llew’s demise reached his cousins, they were greatly saddened and they sought out the eagle, In 1963 he took up a teaching post in Jamaica where he lived for seven which they changed back into a man. After his return to human form, Llew was in a sickly state and took over a year years before arriving in Perth in 1970 to teach in Art and Design at The Western to heal and become whole again. During this time, Blodeuwedd and Gronw were living together in the castle in Australian Institute of Technology (now Curtin University). which Llew and she had lived. A survey exhibition of his work was held at The Art Gallery of Western Australia Once healed, Llew is determined to get his possessions back and he and his cousins storm the castle.

They were all drowned except Blodeuwedd herself to whom Gwydion said “I will not slay thee, but I will do unto thee worse than that. For I Launceston. will turn thee into a bird; and because of the shame thou hast done unto Llew Llaw Gyffes, you shall never show thy face in the light of day.

Baker, Th e Driller Wittenoom (1965) to the notion of realism, even perhaps socialist realism, a term that has been unjustly derided over the years. His working method began with almost academic studies, often in brown tones reminiscent of the great nineteenth century realists, such as Courbet-the first artists to search for a poetics of contemporary labour. He then transposed these into the vocabulary and rhetoric of modernity best represented at that time by the post-war work of Picasso. Baker was a great traveller and may well have see n some of this at first hand. His Fisherman (1965), was originally bought for the Graylands collection from the artist. In 2001 he commented: My interest in painting has been about people in their environment, and Fisherman was inspired by the fishermen mending their nets in Fremantle.
