Description Reproduction of William Blake's "God Creating the Universe," or "Ancient of Days...." Everywhere I look there is a different title for this piece.

But the title isn't important. What is important is that God is being a Bad Ass Motherfucker right here. He is the epitome of chiseled masculinity as he gets his fire and brimstone on and creates existence. Aw yeah son.

In addition to God being totally ripped, I chose this piece for a class assignment not because I am terribly religious, but because I really like William Blake, I love the idea of Old testament god, and....well okay. Mostly it was because God is being super awesome right here.

oil on canvas, 18" x 24"

Thanks for looking!

Perhaps one of my favorite most expressive artists, and you've depicted it wonderfully.

Haha, I can totally see the Led Zeppelin connection! A lot of Blake's pieces have that feel to them. I hope you are well, and thank you!

I'm not religious at all...or spiritual (and if I was spiritual abrahamics would be the last I'd pick), but I like the composition. You know, the blurred, soft, feathered edges; they're not sharp - I like that.

Thanks! Though I really can't take credit for the composition, would that I could! Hope you are well.

Thank you! At first I wasn't terribly thrilled with the triadic palette, but in the end I enjoyed it quite a bit. Hope you are well daring!
