Artist's Note
I developed the design for the Angel of Death back in March...At the time, I was pretty frustrated with life (fruitless job hunts, boyfriend woes, etc.) Now, however, this image no longer reflects how I feel. Simply enjoy all the details!

Symbolism Defined:
-There is one cross in this image, hanging from the "Book of Death."
-The two tassels hanging from the skull bear the Greek symbol for "Omega," the last letter of the Greek alphabet. It is commonly referred to in the Bible.
-In this image -- Death is giving birth -- a symbol of death as rebirth. (For example: The death of a sinful life and the birth of a righteous one. Or, my belief that death is just the crossover from this world into heaven.)
-Death is chained, for no matter what happens in life, death is a certainty.
-The third eye in the forehead represents wisdom. To me, gaining God's wisdom offers insight into a new kind of life and a new view on death.
-As disturbing as this is, I consider this a Christian image.

Other images in my gallery that may be of interest:
-Angel of Death - Ink WIP
-Alpha and Omega
-Alpha and Omega - In WIP
-God is in the Rain
-I Fear Not Death

Special thanks to:
