Ammit Tapestries

Ammit, Egyptian god devourer of souls

Ammit the devourer

The Ammit my artbook 'Dark Mythos: Creatures from World Mythology. One of my favorite pieces from the series :)

Drawing created with prisma colored pencils.

A design inspired by the cheery farewell the character of Steven Grant (as played by Oscar Isaac in Marvel's Moon Knight series) uses when calling his mother.

This ancient Egyptian mythology design features the mythical Egyptian creature Ammit.

This is an acrylic painting depicting Egyptian mythology. On the left side Sehemet the goddess of destruction and fertility and ra the god of all gods (in his animal form) at her feet stand in front of sekhemet’s husbands temple on earth. On the right is Anubis the god of embalming sits on a throne holding a scaled scepter with a creature called Ammit at his feet. In ancient Egypt people believed that when you die your soul is measured in the afterlife. If you soul is heavier than the feather of the goddess of wisdom your soul is eaten by ammit. If your soul is the same weight as the feather then you get to go to the after life. The door behind Anubis is the last gate guarded by snakes that your soul passes through. Each gate has a test ...

An original illustration of mine featuring Anubis weighing a heart with the ever-hungry Ammit waiting. The actual weighing of the soul spell from the Book of the Dead is in the background.

Ammit can have a little heart of the unworthy. As a treat.
