I'm thinking that she would disagree.

She looks like a midwife who rode 10 miles to deliver the villager's baby.

But that makes me think of what Stevie would be like in the delivery room. I remember that time she said that she and someone else visited Robin in the hospital and the doctor took Robin's temp and it was normal, but Stevie's was high.

I could see her in the room when some woman went into labor. Stevie would be convinced that she was having contractions.

Oh come on. No peasant woman was ever so clean or had hair so smoothly brushed. Or a dress so finely made. And certainly, no peasant owned such a perfectly shiny white horse with a halo that followed them around.

Exactly, the hair makes her Stevie Nicks. She's not in character or anything. I can only laugh when I think of what Lindsey might have said (not to Stevie, of course) upon first glimpsing the album cover.

That's the point. She looks like Stevie Nicks, not a Welsh witch and not particularly mystical. I really don't think STEVIE does horses, although she has been on them when playing characters. The fact that she is herself in that photo makes the horse terribly incongruent to my eyes. Michele
