Anubis
It’s been a while since I did a piece of Anup, though I have a lot of scattered sketches around in my notebooks and hard drive. Since he was the catalyst in my re-emergence and I largely consider him the foundation of my practice, it was definitely time to give him a little love. Dua!

Anubis - God of mummification and afterlife
Anubis (Ancient Greek:Ἄνουβις) is the Greek name of a god in ancient Egyptian religion, usually depicted as a canine or a man with a canine head, whose name was “golden jackal”. Son of Nephtys and Seth, Anubis is represented alongside Osiris next to the scale for the judgment of the dead.
