Description
Hello here I have depicted a dark passage in the ancient Egyptian pyramids, lit by a single wall torch. My hope is to capture what it must be like going deep down in the pyramids. Illustrated is the Egyptian God Ra with authentic hieroglyphics as illustrated in photographs in association to Horus. Everything is hand drawn with a mouse sans the wall texture.

Beautiful John, love the ambiance, it does feel like you imagine it would exploring the walls inside a pyramid. Great texture and colours. v.f

Interesting art, John. The single light source and color make for a dramatic image.
John Wills replied:
Thanks Douglas! Getting the lighting right was the bane of my existence for 2 days. :)

thanks Michael, will do more like this in the future. I'm not an Egyptologist, but I do have a great interest in the time period. Thank you for the feature. :)
