In the Ruins of Eregion

 A couple of paintings that I made a few weeks back,  as part of artfeverfest

Three Bastets

Back right: Bastet holding a sistrum, the sacred rattle of ancient Egypt, as a lioness-headed warrior, in the style of  c. 945-342 BCE

Left: a version of the Gayer-Anderson cat, 664–332 BCE

Front: a Ptolemaic Bastet cat from a sculpture found in Alexandria, from  305-30 BCE.

Blue Egyptian lotus blossom in the foreground.

The first one is gorgeous - a perfect picture of that time of day when everything is dark except the sky.
