For use of this image please email me at janice.duke@hotmail.co.uk with the details and ask for permission and conditions first."Om and salutations to She who is the first one, dark within her own reality, the supreme primordial feminine, who cuts through illusion to the unabridged truth of existence."
"She is so bright and glorious that you cannot look at her face or her garments for the splendor with which she shines. For she is terrible with the terror of the avenging lightning, and gentle with the goodness of the bright sun; and both her terror and her gentleness are incomprehensible to humans…. But she is with everyone and in everyone, and so beautiful is her secret that no person can know the sweetness with which she sustains people, and spares them in inscrutable mercy." -- Hildegard of Bingen

What was Kali the goddess of? I know shes from the hindi mythology I've seen her in supernatural.(which depicted Ganesh to be violent, which I thought he wasn't)

She is the the Goddess of Time, Change, Creation, Preservation, Destruction, and Empowerment, as well as the slayer of demons and illusions.
Ganesh is usually quite peaceful.

My thoughts have been commented already, this Kali is perfect for a comic book cover. Take it up to a new level, a revised Kali would have darker skin, more unkempt hair, crazier/wild/drunk expression, her left side symbols of horror, then her right side granting boons, surrounded by corpse/zombies....

If I had been doing this for me only it would have been more that way, but it started out as a commission for someone else, so went in this direction instead. I'm more likely to paint Durga than re-visit Kali in this way again.
