Description

Firstly excuse me if my picture may not be perfect but I've had resize and to compress a lot it because the limits of 512KB on Renderosity. The tradition links this mysterious object (in english known as "Emerald Tablet") to Egyptian culture, especially related to Thoth and his epic. I read a lot on the topic and some documents make me think that its origin should be related to ancient Sumerian culture, rather the Egyptians. So my work is a artistic interpretation of this idea. I hope you enjoy it.

Magical is the only way to describe what you do... not just the themes but the unique and expressive way you translate them into images. Terrific job!
