It's terribly unprofessional of me to upload a sketch, I realize, but the this idea lodged in my head and wouldn't let go. From far left, clockwise around table: Ganesh, the remover of obstacles; the grinning curly-haired fellow is Eros/Cupid of Classical renown; the bored-looking guy with the beard is Jesus; Odin is the one-eyed bird fancier; and the dog-headed gentleman is none other than Anubis.

As a uni student of religions - who oddly follows no specific religion - I love this...

Anubis, Ganesh, and Odin all rock...

I like this... I like it so much... I'm going to steal it... (just to put on my comp background)

Simply brilliant concept and a magnificent drawing. I do not think that this is an unprofessional scan at all. I just love this picture.

Interesting that you chose Anubis for this one.... he was always my favorite from Egyptology.

Love the humor inherent in the title! I wonder how a b/w inversion would look, just because of all the black velvet paintings...

I do not think Jesus wold ever play Poker, but it is funny!

I love it. Much better poker playing gods than dogs [ though one reverses to the other). Anon, Jesus had dinner with the tax collectors & other sinners of his era, who knows what they did for after dinner amusement? Poker’s a good time for philosophical talking.
