MIMIR God of Wisdom | by Lord Gibson
At the centre of the composition is Mimir, a figure who radiates an aura of ancient knowledge and deep insight. He is depicted in a seated posture and radiates authority and wisdom. His figure is wrapped in a rich tapestry of colour in which deep blues and blacks blend seamlessly, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of the enigmatic empires of the Norse sagas.
Contrasting against the blues, the presence of red brings a dynamic element to the painting. The splashes of red are strategically placed, representing the vigor of life, the pulse of passion, and the trials that Mimir has faced throughout his existence. These red accents serve to highlight his role as a counselor to Odin, suggesting the sacrifice and challenges that often accompany the pursuit of wisdom.
