Description
This is another one of my Orixás series. This is Xangô´ ( read - shango, with the "go" as the strong sylable), a strong name for a strong man. Xangô´ was miticaly a King ,who deals with administration and mainly justice, what put him in a higher hierachy among other orixás, not only to Oxalá. Xangô´ is the administrator who binds to Oxalá i's old wisdom, and listens to it when deciding fates.
His figure is strong, an altogether man, indivisible, non-removable, the figure of authority. His decisions are always considered wise, weighed , right and fair. He decides over good and evil. The Orixá of the thunder and lightning (like Iansã, one of his wives than comes with his thunder). The lightning is one of his weapons that he sends as punishment, but never on an irracional way. he´s always neutral, he decides things like a legal process when there is no shadow of a doubt. One of his symbols is the double axe, a symbol of his power, he couldn´t look to only one side of the problem, but equaly to both. His strengh is on the rock formations. His rocks are whole, unbreakable, still and strong as Xangô´ is.
Sorry I went on and on but I couldn't leave one single line unwritten for such a beautiful character.
Thank you so much for viewing and comments are always welcomed

He is the lord of justice for sure. Just seeing him I'm about to spill the beans even on things I haven't done. 8-) Great strong character, pose and expression. Wonderful lighting and atmosphere.

Another winner. What I really love about this one is the muted colour scheme you've chosen here. Contrast that with the energy of the lightning and it creates a beautiful tension. YAY! :)

I didn't realize how many of these images I missed! You created almost an entire page with this series that would have taken me years! LOL! Fantastic portrayal of Xang and I'm certainly not going to argue with him! Makes me want to stay on the good side for sure!! Outstanding artwork!
