Ala - the Earth Goddess of the Igbo tribe of Nigeria
Been a while but hey 👋🏽 been stuck in fundamentals hell lol trying to brute force improvement but I’ll still post every now and then, I actually post a bit more on my IG (artsyoji) if you’re interested in that. But yea my family can’t see this artwork and if you’re African/of African descent you probably know why lol. But I think regardless of your religion you shouldn’t demonize or ridicule the customs/beliefs of your ancestors just because Europeans told you to, but that’s a whole discussion in itself. I also put the traditional sketch I did and the statue the art was based on. Hope everyone’s doing good, and thanks for checking this out 🤗
