Persephone

Description

Persephone, the daughter of Demeter the Greek Goddess of Harvest. She was abducted by Hades and taken into the Underworld, causing Demeter to become very unhappy and everything to wither and die. Before she is rescued, Hades persuades Persephone to eat 4 pomegranate seeds, which binds her to the Underworld for 4 months every year. During these 4 months we have Winter, because Demeter becomes unbearably unhappy.

Whew yeah, this was a fun painting though. Acrylic on stretched canvas. This photo of it is not exact.

So pretty! I love how your style translates into painting, and still shows through here.
