Description

Isis is a goddess in Egyptian mythology. She was most prominent mythologically as the wife and sister of Osiris and mother of Horus, and was worshipped as the archetypal wife and mother.
Her name literally means "(female) of throne", that is, "Queen of the throne", which was portrayed by the emblem worn on her head, that of a throne. However, the hieroglyph of her name originally meant "(female) of flesh", i.e. mortal, and she may simply have represented deified, historical queens.
Taken from Wikipedia.

This picture is the first piece of the series "Gods of the Ennead", the mother goddess ISIS
Here goes the symbolisms:Thick lips & big breasts represent fertility.I wanted her to have a strong and fearful expression on the face because of the things she went through (read the article for more info).Wings are one of the outstanding elements of her representation.Massive usage of gold is to make it look like a typical ancient egypt picture,since she herself represent egypt.
The leather glove is...something i wanted to add i like the controversy LOL

here goes the technical stuff:
time: 2 weeks
tools: photoshop

Nice work!
Enjoying the details and colorful jewlery.
The hand over the chest looks a bit unnatural.
Also not a fan of those sparkling effect on the jewlery.
