"End of Days" - Postcard

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)
This week’s Sunday Postcard Art challenge was "Dark."

I went with another Revelation (Apocalypse) themed piece.

I created this using GIMP 2.8.14.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. (See the side of my blog for links.)

The words are from an old book page:

Wo to the Inhabitants of the Earth, and of the Sea ;
for the Devil is come down unto you,
having great Wrath ;

The fonts are:

Garamond Bold
Benjamin Franklin

So elegant. I find , when taken bit by bit, the Book of Revelations is pretty terrifying, and this is a prefect example of the power of words.

The Book of Revelations...you can't get much darker than that! Brilliant, Anne.

A not-so-subtle interpretation of the darkest hour for the earth while, at the same time, a great work of art! Nicely done!

Great depth to the colour tones adding a touch of darkness to the words.
