Snake-girl Nia: Hydra hair comes alive (revisited—now a print!)

Tweaked & reshot in a scale for prints and eventually a calendar page.

Print available on deviantART.

I was going to crop this several ways for Society6 merch as well, but it looks like I’m going to reshoot it two more times to handle all the different dimensions.

Teresa, Christmas

A lot of people are celebrating Christmas today.

Teresa would say something here about the Christian idea of Incarnation, and how it reflects the love of the Creator for Creation. The Gospel of John tells us that God loves the world. The Book of Genesis tells us that God created the world and thought it good. If we believe in these ideas of God, then to seek the mind of God is to understand that the Creation is good in God’s eyes and the world is the desire of God.

A lot of Christians believe the world is hateful both to them and to God; and they think of Jesus as someone with a ticket out. But if God made the world, and loves the world, than that’s a misunderstanding. So instead of despising this world, we should be trying to keep it working right. Seek justice, love nature, protect the future.

(Did I get that right, Teresa?)

Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanzaa, and so forth.

[I got this up on Dreamwidth about 5:00 the next morning, sssh!]
