"And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel." -Genesis 3:15

This is a drawing I did for my short story "Of Love and Evil".

I love the quote so much. It's like, "HELL YEAH. Another prophecy that has come with Christ!" :D

The art is beautiful. The only thing that bugs me is that the arm seems to not be connected with anything.

Wow, this is really cool! I don't even really have critique for it. I love the bright red coloring. The hand seems to be drawn very well!

It might be because I am ignorant of the Bible, but it doesn't quite seem like your picture matches the quote. But I may be completely wrong so you can ignore me. The picture looks really awesome at first, but then I think "wait, what does an apple, an arm, and a big octopus tentacle have to do with that quote, or your story?"

Oh, and I love the fade effect on the coloring too. Not sure how you did that, but it's awesome!

The quote is God talking to the serpent that tempted Eve into sin. It is a prophecy about Jesus, which connects to my short story. I'll have to post it soon.

And I thought it looked like an arm, a snake's tail, and a fig. : /

The snake tail alludes to the serpent. The hand represents sin. The fig represents knowledge.

Ah, I see :) Thanks for clearing that up! I can see how those who are familiar with the quote would recognize the snake and fig immediately and know what you were getting at xP Very creative! Best of luck on your novel :)

Wow, I really love this piece of art! It captures the mood of the verse, and what you're trying to say. And the quote inside your signature gave me chills! Christians, unite! Lol Great job. :-D
