Museum visit + completed devotional doodle requests featuring the Netjeru!

I did say I would bring my little doodles to the museum with me to pay my respects to the Netjeru, even though I must admit I was a bit embarrassed when I was taking photos holding a bunch of tiny sticky notes with drawings on them! There were a lot of people in the exhibition gallery, after all.

The exhibition was a bit underwhelming when it came to content regarding the Netjeru (there was an interactive feature with facts about a few of the well-known Netjeru, though), but it was still an overall fun experience seeing all the different sarcophagi and animal (no human) mummies. As seen in this post, I managed to get a few photos of my doodles with the objects related to their corresponding deities. (The full doodle display is on the last slide, if anyone's curious about the requests and other personal favorites.)

I also bought two blind box figurines featuring the Netjeru, hoping that I would get either Ra or Thoth, but I wasn't that lucky today. Still, I'm quite happy that I got Anubis and Sobek, and I might post them after I unbox them fully in the future!

Full list of Netjeru that I doodled (and brought with me):
Anpu/Anubis, Khonsu, Khnum, Hathor, Iah, Djehuty/Thoth, Seshat, Ma'at, Nefertem, Ra/Re

Mini devotional doodle requests for a future museum trip!

To mods, feel free to delete this post if it is against the rules.

I am planning on visiting an exhibition at a local museum related to ancient Egypt in two days and I would like to bring a tiny book of sticky notes with me that is filled with drawings and sketches related to the deities to pay my respects. At this moment I do not know what to fill it with.

If any of you have requests for deities that I should draw (repeat requests always welcome - the more the merrier), feel free to tell me and I'll fill an individual page with the deity of your choice! Thank you all very much!

"There's always a rainbow around every corner"

Hello! I honestly think I've been too hard on myself lately, so I drew yet another doodle of me and Ra (Thoth art coming soon - I promise!) to clear my mind a bit.

I feel like Ra knows about my love for rainbows, and though I don't think there is an Egyptian deity for rainbows, I think he would sometimes "make" some with his sun disk and an acrylic rainbow prism (that I am about to buy as a future offering) just to brighten my mood up by even a slight bit. (The other bird character in the artwork is my main sona.)

MY F/O WAS ON LIVE TV!! (+ photocard showcase)

I almost never talk about my f/o Silas (from "Ice Age: Continental Drift"), but the movie where he's from is playing live on TV (in this case, my streaming app) right now and... he's SO COOL... I LOVE HIM SO MUCH...

I drew this photocard of him earlier today because I was crushing on him for the entire day, and I just wanted to get a photo of me watching him while holding my photocard, so... I hope he likes it!

I just wish he had more voicelines in the movie, he doesn't deserve only 2 minutes of screen time.

Small artwork/"photocard" that I drew of Ra!

Hello again everyone! I'm still quite new to Kemetism, but I've finally settled with working out with Ra and Thoth for now.

I am a bit embarrassed to post this as I rarely draw depictions of deities due to personal reasons, but I feel like Ra just stuck out to me as a whole - like he was encouraging me to draw. Besides, I haven't used my markers in quite some time, so this was also a small art media test for me, heh.

I had some spare photocard sleeves (toploaders) from a previous photocard decorating session at my university, so I used one that I personally liked to place him in! Hopefully it's okay to do so - I do worry a lot about my actions.

Hope you all like it!

First post - advice appreciated!

Hello everyone, first post on this subreddit - I'm quite new to all of this, so I do apologize in advance if anything that I have said is considered wrong or offensive.

I've been fascinated by Egyptian history and deities for quite a period of time, and I was wondering how I could start working with any of the deities. I feel a connection to quite a few of them, and at this moment it's still hard for me to decide which few to start with - there's just too many of them to begin with!

For additional context (slightly unrelated, sorry!), I am really passionate about ecology, nature and wildlife (especially birds). I've had quite the tough year, mainly feeling insecure about who I am, like I couldn't do my best in my subject modules, even a bit depressed due to the constant rain and bad weather in my area and horrible relationships with (now ex-)friends. In fact, it was one of these ex-friends that introduced me to the idea of Kemetism in the first place after I had a discussion with them about my past experiences with religion.

After a bit of research, I currently do not wish to make an altar as I do move dormitories every year as a student studying abroad. I have also begun reading through the main threads, the wiki page and the Book of the Dead in attempt to strengthen my historical knowledge, but I still feel like I could do more. I would appreciate it if anyone would provide me with any advice before I fully begin my journey, and I do apologize once again for rambling!

Little doodle of me and him!

I've been stressed out over schoolwork lately, so I really haven't been working on selfship (oc/sona x canon) art quite often - I do apologize.

Recently, I went back home and found this sketch of Laverna (my sona) and Jeremy (from The Secret of NIMH) that I left abandoned for around a year mostly due to a "lack of motivation". I colored it in with alcohol markers just tonight because I felt a bit bad that it was just left as a rough sketch.

Anyways, this was the final result! I don't think my photo of the artwork truly does it justice, but that's just how my phone is refusing to cooperate lol. Hope you guys like it!
