SciFi and Fantasy Art: The Path to Life

I will not attempt to explain this picture. I think it's meaning is pretty obvious, except for the ray of light touching her heart - it comes from God.

This is really lovely. Would have been nice to see it coloured, I spose, but a sketch it shall remain I guess. The angel is great but somethings up with the... the ... the... What exactly would we call the other thing? Demon? Devil? I'm an athiest and I really don't understand these terms. But anyway, I'm not here to blather on about my ignorance, am I ? nope. I just adore the walking woman, her face is so serene and peaceful despite the conflict around her. And she's looking straight ahead, confident. Cool. Very cool.
Thank you! 2 I may deside to develop it further, although it would be difficult to perserve the immediacy of a sketch in a more developed work

Even though this is was done on a regular piece of note book paper, I LOVE this concept of life. Very simple and uniqe and very very true... I see that many people have comented on it.I would love to see this redone. wonderful.

Thanks! Actually I'm in the process of re-doing it right now.

I really respect you for posting something that could potentially attract a lot of skepticism. I am always personally touched when I see a Christian-themed work here. I think the message you convey is a very succinct one: God is the only thing holding us up. It reminds me of the anonymous poem "Footsteps." I'm not sure I know this poem, but I may have heard about it... I don't think one needs to be too brave to put something like that up. I know there are people out there who tend to hate anything Christian-related and it often makes me wonder what makes them competent to make such final judgement on 2000 years of religious history and experience. I have great reservations about the humanistic/materealist approach, but I would prefer to avoid passing any final conclusions on it before I had read all the main 'enlightenment' writers and had studied the history and culture of the time it was formed.Anyway, it's just a picture. <2

I need to say that position of angel is amazingly done! Same are the wings.

I really like how the angel isn't actually touching her; it's just ready in case she stumbles. It's entirely up to the girl; her faith could completely shatter and then the angel would help, but so far she seems to be ok.
