And he hath the number of the beast

Photobucket

I did this painting for Geoffs birthdays in September but just finally got the time to make the frame. I hand sodered pentagrams and after using a drill to put on these tree branches and tied them with twin together to make them more bulky. I had to actually cut the tree branches with a saw haha..it was intense haha..

Im going to post more close up photos of the painting but its got some really killer images in it. I also put the sign of satan in the eye of the owl. The text on the banner says "Ich Bin Mein Eiegene Gott" which in German translates to " I am my own God" which is the theme of the satanic bible. Ive been teaching myself German for the past 2 months so I thought it would be sick to use. The Owl symbolizes Geoff because he loves owls and the rat is me because rats always make him think of me..and then after our first date he made me a flash sheet with a key on it so I thought id make him a lock :]

"Ich Bin Meine Eigene Gott" means "I am my own God" (the Satanic Maxim), but you spelled it incorrectly on your piece.
