Reveries of Giants with serpentine feet etc

leading from

concept / exploration doodles

I was inspired by Ovid's Metamorphoses which tells stories of Greek Mythology and that fight with the gods and briefly describes the giants that fought with the Gods, and these beings had snake feet and also images of the mythological figure Abraxas , an ancient Egyptian god connected with early gnosticism had serpentine legs and he was related to entity Baphomet. Finding out about these inspired me as well.

giants, who fought to avenge the Titans' downfall
