Lilith Rising (Gnostic Series)

"He then created a woman for Adam, from the earth, as He had created Adam himself, and called her Lilith." - Alphabetum Siracidis

In Hebrew Midrashic literature, Lilith was formed simultaneously as Adam, though not of pure earth but of darkened sediment. Created as the first woman and wife of Adam, conflict arose when Adam demanded she lie beneath him. Lilith, viewing herself as his equal, refused to submit and disappeared to the Red Sea. Despite the threat of angels, she never returned and Eve was later created.

Model: Abigail

Created simply using imported Dead Sea mud w/no effects added digitally.
