Anat the Canaanite goddess of sexual love, war, and hunting. Progenitress of heroes, lady of Palestine.
Info on each sketch below:
Top right: Anat is shown here in a man's war kilt and her hair pulled up, a nod to the Anat statue head found in Gaza. This is after Baal Hadad's 'death', with her cheeks gouged by grief and face painted to resemble a man's beard. This beard imitation combined with her topless clothing and the horned headdress she wears is to evoke a sense of Baal having risen from the dead to claim revenge.
Bottom Right: An exploration of her musculature, with a focus on the markings on her hips and stomach. Drawn from female Canaanite fertility idols that show similar markings with a lot of emphasis on the navel/bellybutton.
Bottom Left: Anat at the feast of Baal's new palace. She wears expensive, imported Egyptian linens. Her hair is braided, eyelids darkened with kohl, and hands darkened with henna.
Center: Anat's fullbody with lots of influence from historical Palestinian dress. She is shown with a vulture because Aqhat, killed at her order, was eaten by vultures and because Anat is often shown with wing imagery.

Gordon Ramsay: now tell me about this
Rabbi Akiva: This reflecting pool leads to the throne room of the almighty.
Gordon: Right, right.
Rabbi Akiva: But well, without reciting the proper prayers, you go mad.
Gordon: Bloody hell. Probably trapped in the treasury of the divine forever then right?
Rabbi Akiva: that's right. But if we make it to the next chamber, we get to measure the body of the divine.
Gordon: Well fuck me. S'abit piss for all the work we done to get here innit. Fuck alright then.
Rabbi Akiva: I brought measuring tape.
