Feyre and Rhys, as Hades and Persephone

«Hades, god of the Underworld, fell in love with Persephone, daughter of Demeter and goddess of spring. One day, he kidnapped her and took her to the Underworld to make her his queen. Her mother, desperate, stopped the growth of the earth until the gods intervened. Finally, it was agreed that Persephone would spend part of the year with Hades in the Underworld and part with her mother on Earth, thus marking the cycle of the seasons.»

I had forgotten what I had planned to do with uploading the rest of the fanarts created in 2024, this being 2/3 of those based on Greek mythology.

Rhys is extremely difficult to draw, but especially to paint. I remember erasing the sketch about five times, so I send a huge hug of admiration to those artists who do it so well.
