| 26 Feb 2004 |  Mario Latimeria |  Loading...This is one of my favourites here in elfwood. I know and admire this picture for long time and finally I dared to comment it. I love cats, especially those black  I know few people who hate cats (and love dogs instead, eh I couldn't understand why, they explain - they say cats are false. I think they are just pragmatic, as sometimes they may consider human for a tin opener )) So, egyptians adored the cats. Why not. Those animals are so strange. Who knows what lies behind those green eyes... maybe great goddess of all cats is watching us... | |

| 22 Jun 2004 |  ~*~ The Dark Huntress ~*~ | Loading... WONDERFUL!! BRILLANT!! You even remembered that her name was Bast not BastET.
Only a few things: She didn't have the Ethreal feel to her, the thing that makes her seem timeless and powerful. She needs to have that Majestic Beauty as well, also She needs to have an Ankh somewhere.
I cannot find other words to express other than:
You are a close #2.
Almost a one dearest.

| 10 Jun 2005 |  Silvina Pianta | Loading... Great picture, your technique is perfect, especially how you rendered the temple walls, it really magnifies the goddess and yet its simplicity is giving the picture this feeling of witnessing reality...that's what i like, being able to meet irreal people just by looking at a picture. Thanks for introducing me to Bast, i'm now going to worship her!! | |

| 27 Apr 2007 |  Tami L Cushway | Loading... This is just awesome.. I love it! | |
| 26 Jul 2007 | *Egypt Kitten* | Loading... OMG so nice!!! Dark Huntress Cara, I understand what you mean about the loss of ethereal feel. But I think that it sort of shows her with a more everyday (if you can say that about a goddess) and more mortal feel. My favorite thing is the dress. Great proportions, great! I'm a pretty good drawer but I wish I could do it like you. | |
| 10 Dec 2008 |  Jeanette M Thomas | Loading... I had a little statue of Bast with kittens around her feet. This picture is like bringing that figurine into "real" life. Thank you.  Alisa Simonoff replies: "Thank you, that little statue of yours sounds really neat. I’d like to have something like that." | |
| 11 Dec 2008 | Jeanette M Thomas | Loading... Alisa, I got it long ago at the gift shop of the Universit of PA museum shop. Chek out museum gift shops which often have reproductions of ancient statues/figurines for sale. Also got a nice Isis figure and a Horus hawk. | |
