The Holly King from the Celtic Tradition.  I painted him with a little bit of a Christ-like energy, as the Holly King and Oak King are yet another older Pagan myth that the writers of the Christian myth borrowed from.

The two twin gods theme? That’s an interesting subject to work on 1
I really love this piece, it pops right out of the screen with divine aura, fantastic job!
