I had to stop myself from getting lost in the details with this artwork πŸ˜†
But egyptian ornaments is an interesting topic to look into. So many beautiful designs...

Also the dot next to Her eye was an accident..
The pen dropped and a few ink drops landed on the page. Made me hold my breath for a moment 🫣
Luckily I could conceal most of them - and the remaining one on Her face looks like a beauty mark. I do think it kinda fits 😊🌸

I am very impressed. From the level of symbolism to the extent of detail and color palette, this truly is beautiful.

This is truly beautiful and exceptional. However, I don't know much about drawing, but is there something wrong with the face? There could be some proportional / perspective error around the eyebrows / eyes / upper nose. But I might be wrong.

Your art is really good I would love to see these on ToZ, I genuinely love this style.

#12

Incredibly beautiful! :):)
You have a talent for painting. KEEP GOING!

Spontaneously I had to think: nobody is perfect. It is precisely the small mistakes that make someone likeable.
The wonderful goddess Maat reminds us all the time that we have to achieve a balance between chaos and order every day.
HAIL ZEUS!
Hail Lucifer!
Hail Wotan!

Thank you! Yes, it's on paper. πŸ™‚
I love traditional painting/drawing techniques the most. Even through I try to get into digital drawings, I always get back to drawing on paper (also because I have dozens of different types of paper and pens πŸ˜†)

Thank you! Hearing this from a knowledgeable Artist makes me very happy. I really enjoyed your well written posts on how to draw πŸ™

As for the color palette/symbolism, I tried to keep it as close to ancient depictions of Lady Maat and Egyptian ornamental designs as possible, while still going for a "modern" style.

Yes, I know what you mean πŸ˜…
I've noticed it just after posting, but it's too late now..
I think it's because I tried to change the perspective a little bit from the typical Egyptian side-view. Gives me a reason to practise more to understand how it really works πŸ˜†
Thank you for noticing and pointing it out. This helps me to get better.

Good job!! I hope we can all see more of your artwork in the future!!! πŸ’–
