That's beautiful-- I love the combination of several religions like the Horned God's antlers, the crescent moon (muslim, right?), and the Japanese kanji.
Oh, and Mary too, she's cool.... =P

What I meant to say was that this is really amazing and beautiful. I really love the colors, it really sets the mood up. And I love the expression on her face, as though she was deep in thought or praying. You did a real good job. Also, the random placement of text is nice.

Wow I really like the way you put this together. The texture on the canvas and the gold letters and spots are my favorite parts for some reason...

Hmmm. Now there's something you don't see every day. Mary showing cleavage. LOL.
What's the significance of the antlers?
Very cool image. 8)

the antlers are supposed to represent the pagan (stag) god.

Ahhh. Now that makes perfect sense. Although I'm not familiar with the stag god specifically, I do know there are enough pagan rituals incorporated into Christianity to make you wonder where one ends and the other begins. :nod:

This is beautiful. I love the pop art-ness of it. Gorgeous. Killer idea, too. The mix of ideas and all.
