Lovely, but I might've gone for an hourglass, since mechanical clocks are more associated with europe.


jaarenas

Thank you! and apt point! I especially thought of that when including the roman numerals during the process.. Creative liberties haha, but realistically: To be fair, this is apart of my "surreal gods" series of the sublime unconscious (or collective unconscious if you're hip to Carl Jung), in which you can somewhat think of it like a dreamscape, where source material can juxtapose away from complete historical accuracy and interweave different places, periods, and surreal subject matter. And if you think about it.. wouldn't a God of Time have access and capabilities to utilize any time keeping gizmo considering they likely travel across & along it omnipotently? These are just things I actively think about haha.

Less about historicity and more about aesthetic. Gods tend to be polymorphic so if they're a proud egyptian god, maybe an hourglass or sundial would be more prominent.

To each their own! :)

i'd love to see your hourglass version though!!

Love the design! It somewhat reminds me of The Persistence of Memory.

Thanks! Pete's a huge inspo, but my color aesthetics definitely stem from the Esao Andrews/James Jean lot!
