"Zrec" by Alena Alja Škutchanová

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 38 out of 38 by Alena Alja Škutchanová. ←Previous - Next→


	Zrec (for better reading 'zhrec') was slavic priest. Like in all european pagan societies his function was very similar to for example druids. The rithoual he practises on the picture is combing the hair. Long hair and nudity symbolises his deep connection to the forces of nature and the tree is his totem tree. Done in pencil, finished in Painter Classic

30 Oct 2006	Veronika 'Lawenta' Prokesova	Loading... I love the idea of such a simple activity as combing his hair as a ritual, and that the picture is beautiful goes without saying. But isn't it uncomfortable to try to do anything with his hair with the trunk behind his back? I usually need some free space behind to do my braid Alena Alja Škutchanová replies: "Okay, if he is leaning against the thin tree there is... still lots of place. (But I think it is on you if you will belive my interpretation)"
