adoration of the child
oil pastels
a4 vellum board
december 2025
one of my favorites i've done... i even made a bad photobash as i ref because i wanted it to really look good. upon like the first actualy chapter for durin's story quest, i immediatley saw the three kings/nativity parallel of the mages, then anya as mary??? i'm not even a practicing catholic but here we are. the original reference for the composition is "adoration of the child" by gerard van honthorst.
