Description
Delectatio Morosa is, according to the Catholic Encyclopedia, the pleasure taken in a sinful thought or imagination even without desiring it. Also known as an internal sin.I don't know why, but lately, I've been flirting with my roots in the Catholic church ...but don't expect to see a heathen like me at mass anytime soon!
This image never started out like this. I had an idea of what I wanted and hours after tinkering here and there (and deleting what I had done many times over), this is what emerged ...and I'm actually happy with it.
So, credits!!

Hmm...I have some ideas about how, but I think that they're a little too impure for the world.

I would be happy as well, you did a good job and you made the image yours, you altered it loads! That's what makes stock owners happy.

Actually, Christianity is full of wonderful symbology. It's fun to play around with. Hehe. I like this piece. It's creepy and beautiful and just...pretty. I don't know. I like how the swirls seem to come from her hair, and the halo and barbed wire. Nice work!

Wow awesome image! The barbed wire looks like a crown of thorns( connecting with the religious aspect). Makes me want to clear my mind of impure thoughts! Lmao.

Wow this looks beautiful! I love the whipsy look of the tattoos, and the cracked wall in the background looks killer cool. Very nice!

Thank you!!!! The look of the tattoo was actually a mistake, but after I looked at it, I loved it.
