Description

So my school (that I've graduated from now yay!) had a competition for the yearbook cover. I very much decided that I was gonna go overboard and thank you so much to www.tumblr.com/beetrootbot for helping me with the shading :3

Also! I’m selling this design on my Redbubble if any of y’all are interested:  www.redbubble.com/people/Mysti…

Design choices if you care about that:

- Based off how angels are described in the Bible (Isaiah, Revelation) specifically Revelation 4:8 except I misread it slightly so now it has 6 sets of wings:

𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦𝘴, 𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘴𝘪𝘹 𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴, 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘧 𝘦𝘺𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯. 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘥𝘰 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘰𝘳 𝘯𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵, 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨,

“𝘒𝘢𝘥𝘰𝘴𝘩, 𝘬𝘢𝘥𝘰𝘴𝘩, 𝘬𝘢𝘥𝘰𝘴𝘩
𝘈𝘥𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘪 𝘌𝘭𝘰𝘩𝘦𝘪-𝘛𝘻𝘷𝘢’𝘰𝘵,
𝘢𝘴𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘩𝘢𝘺𝘢 𝘷’𝘩𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘩 𝘷’𝘺𝘢𝘷𝘰!
𝘏𝘰𝘭𝘺, 𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘺, 𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘺
𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘰𝘳𝘥 𝘎𝘰𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘏𝘰𝘴𝘵𝘴,
𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘪𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥
𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘦!”

- I used their chant as part of the halo

- A seraph (meaning ‘burning one’), the highest ranking angel in Christian angelology

- Due to name and stimulus (‘Shine brightly as together we look to him’) I leaned very heavily into light as seen in the glowing chest, flaming head, and placing among stars

- High ranking angels are said to hold objects of gold and sapphire, so I used those colours

- There is a reason whenever angels appear the first thing they say is “Be not afraid”, I wanted to showcase why
