DEATH - The Fourth of the Four Sisters of the Apocalypse
This series is my attempt to try and bring the Christian concept of the Four Horsemen into a different and more universal light. The four forces written about can have more universal meaning then I think some give credit for, as each of the symbols do, in the end, lead to the same thing.
For the final of the Four Sisters of the Apocalypse, I decided to keep it more simple; After the nightmare of the first three sisters, the idea of Death was for her to be a relief.
On her blindfold is the word "Salvation" written in Enochian, and on her stomach the symbol for Winter. On her left arm is an hour glass and on her chest is the descending note. Finally on her forehead is the symbol for the year 2012.
Her hand is reaching out to not only greet you, but also for you to pay her the money to cross over to the next world.

Outstanding! How that does both follow, as well as fly in the face of the Christian concept. of the horrific quartet of night riders hunting and running humanity down on the coach ora all alone at night. The notion that "Death" is the nice one of the four sisters, the one we would most care to meet and marry after our experiences of previously being set up on blind dates with the other three. That very much follows the christian concept of this life is acknowledged to be a steady stream of festering shit sandwiches for us to eat, but our salvation lies in death and transcendence to heaven. Though, i don't exactly get that warm fuzzy feeling from this Mistress Morte that she is working off the same travel brochure as her christian competitors working in the church on the opposite side of the street. That she tells us she is simply a bit better than her three sisters does not in any way attest that she will be good. The way she shakes her hour glass in our face to show how long we have left before our date with her begins indicates that she is a very supercilious stickler who will not brook any tardiness or deviation from her established schedule. Of course, there is a subtle suggestion that she might well be accelerating the schedule as she shakes the device and hastens the flow of last few grains of our sand.
You have done a grand job in creating and presenting your concept of the matriarchal form of apocalypse riders. The ghastly, ghostly, glamour goddess ghouls are definitely not our grandmother's Lady Godiva.
