Original icons

Every icon has its own story. Click on the image when you want to read the story about HOW the icon started, HOW I made it, WHO is it and WHERE is the icon now.

Most of the text about WHO is on the icons I copied from other websites and I choose those websites random and not from one specific religion.

I don’t write about the who’s and how’s of the creatures I paint or who they are. Because about angels, saints, historical, biblical, legendary or mythical creatures are too many stories and very different from each other. Angels seem to be not from here, so you can even call them E.T.’s Extra Terrestrials. 😉

We all have our own perception and beliefs. That’s not what I’m offering here. Also this is not a place for discussion about religion.

I am the creator of icons, paintings and products. And to me it’s all up to you or anyone else what meaning you give to the icon. I do wish it works well for you, whatever it means to you.
