Ash, dust, bone, breath--and even human rib [yes, that's a supposedly real human rib, not one cleaned off a cow's]. All these items are described in the passage below. Since Adam was created first, he gets the older look, versus Eve's luscious environment. Kind of reminds me of a museum piece featured on a banner. Also wanted something a little harder than a delicate religious painting like The Creation of Adam by Italian Renaissance Man, Michelangelo.
From trusty ol' Wiki: "In an older Jahwist or Jahwist-Elohist sources (tenth-ninth centuries BC) in Genesis 2:4b, also known as the "subordinating (of woman) account," Yahweh fashions a man (Heb. adam, "man" or "mankind") from dust (Heb. adamah) and blows the breath of life into his nostrils."
Really? Then why is it called "The Fall of MAN?" Adam was created first, so he should have known better than to have listened to Eve over God~ Ah, the first family already messed it up for humanity...
PS--I admit these two Adam and Eve pieces are based on modern models. Just think of it as contemporary interpretations of the beginning of time. Mind-blowing! Serpents were around in mythology before dinosaurs!
These are the photos I used for reference:
