Thor

A few days ago, we've both been drawing Thor - Old Norse Þórr, Old English Þunor and Old High German Donar - the god of thunder, lightning, storms, oak trees, strength, destruction, fertility, healing, and the protection of mankind. In legend, he is the son of Odin and Jord, the earth goddess.
As we always draw what we see when we connect with the deity's energy, our portraits look rather similar.

    Wow! These are both so powerful...the faces are both strong, yet contemplative, like one who has seen much, but stills calls himself a student...

    Wonderful!
