The Ibis was one of the animals sacred to the god Thoth- the god of writing & the moon and here I have painted the god holding a papyrus roll in one hand and a writing instrument in the other and surrounded by the Sacred Ibis. In the background is a temple dedicated to this important deity complete with carved hieroglyphs and images of the Ibis as well as having 3 fully carved Obelisks complete with a golden point on each one. This painting not only captures the importance of Thoth but also gives a glimpse into the beauty of ancient Egypt and their wonderful belief system.
