On A4 handmade drawing.
This drawing took my 4 days.
Reference: I used model for woman body, others are imaginary.

The Ankh is commonly known to mean life in the language of Ancient Kemet (land of the Blacks) renamed Egypt by the Greeks. It is also a symbol for the power to give and sustain life, the Ankh is typically associated with material things such as water(which was believed by Egyptians to regenerate life), air, sun, as well as with the Gods, who are frequently pictured carrying an Ankh.
The Egyptian king is often associated with the Ankh also, either in possession of an Ankh (providing life to his people) or being given an Ankh (or stream of Ankhs) by the Gods. It is usually worn as an amulet to extent the life of living and placed on the mummy to energize the resurrected spirit. It is believed that life energy emanating from the Ankh can be absorbed by anyone within a certain proximity.
The amulet is a powerful talisman that provides the wearer with protection from the evil forces of decay and degeneration.

The girl in the picture, that lives millions of lightyear away, as her ancestors did, that visited this world hundreds years ago, uses the ankh...

THOUGHTS

Violent blood and pools of rage will show that of which cannot be seen, but only envisioned. And with that, man breaks its shell, tears of blood and violence will burn away the flesh of torment, and all hope will be lost and forgotten

To lunar deities that pave deadways.
