2000 years ago, there weren't any petting zoos yet, but the words for the animals already existed. I made 4 graphics showing 16 common farm animals and their reconstructed Proto-Germanic names. Their medieval and modern descendants in the 10 major Germanic languages are also included.

Once the dust settles with the house (re: tree fell on it), caught up on bookcover work, and I can sit with the deer again, it'll be time to work on a new large deer painting. One that's been in the woods for 3,000 years considering the way the wind speaks with the roots. fallenlights.net
