Mary Magdalene print, Catholic icon religious wall art, Modern Christian gothic home decor, divine feminine gift, Skull macabre decor

Mary Magdalene is a symbol of both repentance and redemption. Mary Magdalene is also the patron saint of the contemplative life, converts, glove makers, hairstylists, penitent sinners, fallen women, people ridiculed for their piety, perfumeries and perfumers, pharmacists, and women. Her conversion from a life of sin to a life of deep spirituality is an embodiment of God’s forgiveness and the transformative power of faith.

In art Mary Magdalene is often portrayed with vibrant red hair, expressing her fiery and passionate personality. This distinctive feature depicts her strength, determination, and unwavering faith. Another symbol associated with Mary Magdalene is the skull, which represents her contemplation of death, resurrection and the ephemeral nature of earthly existence. It serves as a reminder of her introspective nature and profound spiritual insights.

Embrace the divine energy of Mary Magdalene and invite her redemptive blessings into your home. Our prints sit great in either maximalist, Victorian antique bedecked dark home interiors or juxtaposed against a more minimal, white boho space.

🖼 * ABOUT THE ARTIST * 🖼

Marina worked as a professional collage and 3D illustrator for 15 years, with work published in the UK Sunday Times, New Scientist, Mail On Sunday, and Creative Review, among others. In 2010, she became a full-time astrologer with darkstarastrology.com. In 2022, she returned to floral watercolour painting as an antidote to working with computer screens all day. You can see the journey on her instagram profile darkstarmarina.

In 2023, she decided to experiment with AI art and merge all her influences to create an eclectic "Whimsigothic" style for her Goddess art. She does not consider herself an AI artist because although she uses AI-assisted elements in her work, the process is complex. But it is fair to say she is a Photomontage artist using AI-assisted elements.

The final image is a montage of vintage art, digital painting and fantasy AI-generated figures. Primarily, the design is collaged in Photoshop and then hand-painted using the digital painting program Rebelle 7. Each image takes about 2/3 days to complete.

About her process, Marina states, "Although I am heavily influenced by art nouveau, Klimt and other pre-raphaelite artists, the AI image generator I use is my own model. Ie: It was trained using my artwork. So it is unique to me. It is not a question of crafting a word prompt, and then you have a finished piece. My new images are just as handcrafted and involved as my past illustrations."
