The original idea was to represent some kind of battle between heaven and hell, but the project took me to a different place: an elements meeting.

Up: AIR with the Seven Apocalyptic Trumpets

Down: EARTH with the Devil´s spears

Right: FIRE with the Phoenix feathers

Left: WATER with the Neptune´s shells

This image represents Chronos, the personification of time.

After a little research I saw that he is usually portrayed through an old, wise man with a long beard.

The spiral circle of particles represents the time floating (like sand dropping inside an hourglass).

The twelve semicircles represent the hours on a clock, or the Zodiac Wheel (Chronos was depicted in Greco-Roman mosaics as a man turning the Zodiac Wheel), or the month of the year (his name in Modern Greek also means "year").

And yes, I love using black & gold...

I´m a big Mastodon fan, and the album "Crack the Skye" is amazing and very inspiring.

I created this poster after listening to the song "The Czar". Just took my favorite part and let things flow:

"Spiraling up through the crack in the sky

Leaving material world behind

I see your face in constellations

The martyr is ending his life for mine"

The Czar - by Mastodon

This illustration was based on a quick briefing: had to have a mystical/nature atmosphere. So, I added things that bring us these feelings: the third eye, the enlightenment, the alchemy symbols, some “Alex Grey lines”…

The alchemy symbols: left: “Earth” / right: “Wood” / top: “Sublimation”* / Center: “Spirit” / Bottom: “Purification” (*Sublimation is the transition of a substance from the solid phase to the gas phase without passing through an intermediate liquid phase)

The three eyed head is some kind of supreme nature force, and it´s “sublimating” the elements (wood and earth) transforming them into spirits, reaching supreme purification.

Lemmy is the King of Rock and Roll. Ozzy is the Prince of Darkness. I am... well... I´m a big fan of Han Hoogerbrugge and this is my picture in his style.

(I only did the vector version of myself. Lemmy and Ozzy were made by Han - https://www.hoogerbrugge.com/)
