#Classicstober Day 29 - Mysteries 🌾✨
Not the spookiest piece but when I saw this prompt it reminded me of a paper I wrote in grad school about tiny votive figurines of girls holding piglets from Eleusis.

Maria Thorpe, my chaotic neutral girlie. Saw the prompt and it had to be you. I love how much she matured and grew alongside Altaïr 😭

I really wanted to make it seem he is reaching past the border to the viewer to drive home he can cross boundaries and planes.

#Classicstober25 Thanatos
I know that he is often regarded with fear and malice but I wanted to depict a young Thanatos as mild mannered with kind and patient eyes. I wanted him wearing his “melampeplos” with a soul butterfly on his finger.

I based this piece off of the bronze bust from Civitella d’Arno. I always thought his wing ears were charming! Happy #Classicstober25 !

Millennia pass, but some traditions endure and here are some glimpses into the quietude of divine existence. Just taking a casual walk around the old office in Byblos with my consort and preparing for the next early morning.

I don't have anything profound to say. Censorship is bad. Tag and spoiler your NSFW art. Informed consent is more important than smothering voices.

No better way to gear up for #ClassicsTober than to finally finish a prompt I started last year 😅
I was drawn to the complex story of Regina of South Shields & I hoped to reflect the implications we can draw from her tombstone. You can read further details on my instagram post!
