A little portrait/colour study of Lanone, goddess of Science and Logic! This is how she appears to the people of Alanthro, one of the human cultures in my stories.

Just a bit of backstory: Alanthro is an island country inspired by bits and pieces of Japan’s Heian Period. Because the ocean is such a big part of the Alanthro’s culture, the people naturally project ocean themes onto the gods and goddesses. So for Lanone, her eyes are like the sun on the ocean, and her colours are reminiscent of the sea.

Esmenaa, goddess of Healing, as she’d appear to the Torda, another human culture from my stories! The Torda are inspired by the Middle East (I haven’t nailed the specific countries yet, but that’s the general gist of it).

In Omniaa, the Torda are situated in the desert, so this version of Esmenaa has a sandy palette. However, there can be different interpretations even within one culture, so I think Esmemaa would be pictured with an oasis theme as well XDD

Another portrait/colour study! Here’s Fenorea, goddess of Flora and Fauna, as she appears to the Sun-Beings (one of my non-human peoples)! As you can probably guess, the sun plays a big part in Sun-Being culture, so they’d imagine Fenorea with such elements -- in this case, sunlight shines through her hair like dappled light through a forest canopy or vines.
