# About me
Residence: Reykjavík, IcelandGreetings and peace to everybody! Friður! Shalom! Peace!
39 y.o. artist with 4 years of art schooling (Berezhany Youth Art School). Born in west Ukraine. Icelandic and Ukrainian citizen. For the past 14 years lived in Norway and Iceland. Historian by education (M.A.). Specialized in Ukrainian, Jewish and medieval history. Here I will be posting my experimental pen / pencil drawings once in a while. When I was a teen I went 4 years in youth art school in Ukraine (studied drawing, watercolors, sculpture, collage, art history etc.) and had always been into creativity (I do enjoy drawing) but also interested in religion, Christianity (I try to do some "missionary" work with my art to give "guiding tips" to the people who are in the state of spiritual confusion) and philosophy. I work in hotel and tourism business in Iceland.
You may freely use my drawings wherever you like...no copyright problems with me. Download, use in your sites, blogs whatever...I am also sharing my drawings on Wikimedia Commons.

oh sorry, im a trinitarian wicca- a Christian who practices witchcraft. I follow the Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and YHWH; but I typically refer to YHWH by female pronouns. It doesn't compromise my salvation and I just feel more comfortable and closer to God when I think of YHWH as a Mother rather than a Father. I... well, I will just say that I don't have good memories in regards to my father when I was growing up, and that is a large part of why when I try and call God "Father" it just hurts me inside in extremely personal ways. Thus, I refer to "Him" as "Her," "the Father" as "the Mother," and "God" as "Goddess."

witchcraft is evil...remember the story about the Simon the Magician and waht happened to him...just read in the NT. But I am no judge over u...your life is your own business

Witchcraft is merely a practice, just like Buddhism. ^^ But, yes, i do suppose it is my own business, brother. God bless you for being so nice!

Actually, pagans do not even believe in the devil. So... no, we are not satan worshipers. Calling a pagan a devil-worshiper is the equivalent of saying an atheist worships YHWH, your God. ^^
Also, in response to your other comment (the one about how if I don't convert, you will have no further desire to converse with me whatsoever), might I remind you who exactly it was that the Lord Jesus Christ spent His time with and who He came to save? It was not the righteous, but, rather, sinners.
Also, I should say that your God sometimes uses others, sometimes even non-Christians, to test His children and make sure they are adequately representing His kingdom. Your rhetoric, however, combined with your insults towards me, is a disgust to him just as much as my paganism. Yes, you are obviously very passionate about Him, but the behaviors you have displayed have not made me feel loved by Christ at all. Do you think I would wish to become a Christian if perhaps your messages to me were the only example of Christianity I was able to see? A very bad first impression... If you feel that you are sharing Christ in a way that aligns with His message, I would highly suggest delving back into Scripture, seeing who He conversed with, seeing how He conversed with them, and pondering upon how you might better become a witness for the kingdom of God. For all you know, it may have been God's plan from the very beginning for us to one day become friends here on DeviantART, and through a conversation one day and through words you potentially could have said, I might have been convicted by the Holy Spirit to return to the ways of the Lord. However, as of now, you have ruined any such chance. Please, even though I am no longer a Christian, it still hurts me deeply to see people who are passionate Christians like yourself not know how to actually interact with non-Christians and lead them to Christ. I had absolutely no intentions whatsoever of trying to preach my paganism to you, or to get you involved in my "devil-worship." I only thought that perhaps we could become friends and converse on a mutual, benevolent, amicable, and intellectual level- of which, it seems, we shall not be able to do because of your harshness and ill-representation of the Lord's will.
Even though I am no longer your brother in Christ, I pray that the Holy Spirit shall lead you to take my words to heart so that you may better represent the Lord and His work on the cross in the future, Zakharii. Auf wiedersehen~
