Yes, I posed for a photographer who took pictures of me with the cape. In addition, I posed in front of a full length mirror as I worked on the painting, and that helped some. The lighting is all invented, though.
If I was to do it now, I’d arrange to be holding a lamp of some sort to help visualize that aspect of it. Or not…I might feel confident enough to make it up, as I did when Chronos was done.
I have the 5 Incarnations hanging up in our spare bedroom.
The whole series of covers for Incarnations has so much character and personality.
I'm hard pressed to choose a favourite, so I won't.
Oh, this illustration is lovely! Did you pose the cape to get the drapery right?

I need to get off my lazy butt and do the same thing, haha! Thank you so much for the response!
