Let My People Go

About this artwork

Moses, the champion prophet of the Jewish religion, challenges the Pharaoh to release his Hebrew people from slavery in Egypt. I've wanted to draw a scene like this for ages now, but the recent release of the Exodus: Gods and Kings movie prompted me to tackle it now. I didn't count the hours, but I am sure I spent far more time drawing and coloring this picture than I have any other art piece I've produced over the years. The perspective on the architecture alone was a major pain in the ass.
