Dionysus sketches from instagram–I like the challenge of representing the duality of his gentleness and understanding with his potential for frenzy and brutality

developing some stuff for a short film i want to make over the summer based on norse mythology… trying to figure out a design for odin that is ambiguous and silhouetted but still recognizable.

anubis and thoth judging a soul… not sure if i got those hieroglyphs right though.. x

one of my favourite Hermes myths is when Hera finds out Zeus’s affair with the mortal girl Io, and turns her into a cow. Hera charges her thousand-eyed guard Argus to keep a constant watch over Io in case Zeus gets any ideas to take her. Zeus sends his son Hermes, the god of swiftness, speed, and smuggling, the steal her back. Although Hermes fails to return Io, he brutally kills Argus by first befriending him, singing to him, playing music for him, and lulls him to sleep–then slaughters him and takes his eyes as a trophy.
