well for the Immagery you would have to know more about me but I'm happy to explain . The Icon was a result of my studies in runes wich started with the Elder Futhark of the Norse or Vikings as most people call them. it is a fusion of 4 of those runes who attributed to me most at that time, some 4 years ago, and still do. the runes are: Uruz wich stands for courage and strength (as the attributes that applied to me) Wunjo Joy and pleasure (or simple happyness, wich is something I can always find for myself wherever I am and whatever the situation thus far) Kenaz wich stands for torch and light. Algiz self defense, and protection. as for the other drawings, you will probably see that the first 2 contain duality as a main theme wich is because I always believed duality playes a big part in all excistance as a matter of balance. the first drawing also contains a book because I hold knowledge in high regard, the hammer to me is both building as destruction. for a hammer can be used for both. the tear is actualy a drop of blood for everything you want comes at a price and knowlege and power can cost the highest price of all was my experience at that point wich is also the point of the blades on the Inverted pentagram. the second drawing is evidently an inverted pentagram overlaying a normal pentagram every corner contains a rune but to be honest the fluid round runes popped into my head while making it while I did not know their meaning or if they actualy are real runes/script. the bottom one is an attempt at a personal Emblem with the sole goal to not think about it but draw that wich simply felt right. ____________________________________________________ Believe is reality!

[teal]Interesting. Looking at other people's symbolism always has a deliciously surreal quality. It's what makes Salvador Dali so brilliant.
Maybe I should share some of my stuff on here sometime. [/teal]

I decided to share more then just visual "art" here to save the making of another treath. I've tried to make something acin to the style of norse saga's and story telling. The Guardians.On the darkest nights they come, the guardians. Riding steeds of light and flame. Striking like thunder and lightning.
Tall and broad as bears, their knifes of bones and fangs. The krakens strength in them. The blood of giants running in their veins.
Clad in skins of animals and monsters. This brotherhood knows no fear. Runes, fangs and axes their weapons of choice. Their battlecries fill the night.
Vulcanic forged weapons, thousands of deaths. The horns seek the heart. The fire breath turns unliving to ashes. The axe whistles in swing.
The Ravens dine well in their wake. Wyrms fear their fury, Trolls flee their wrath. Great beasts of Gaia fight by their side. Wolves bare their throats.
The fell breath of ice is nothing to them. The flaming tides of Deserts is no worse. They feast as they wage war hearty and well. The face of Death gives them no pause.
From Icy planes they come. On skyfire, they come. They smite their enemies. They slay the beasts of the void.
Those they choose to fight with them. Reborn in the world of the gods.
