Today I had a very hard day that left me feeling very tense. I was very stressed and didn't know what to do and I was suddenly hit with the need to draw something for the gods both to alleviate this feeling and to create something because sometimes the only thing I can do when I feel like I can't do anything else is to create art.

Previously, Apollo has urged me to draw using crayons as it will force me to relax because using a tense arm to hold a crayon will cause it to snap so I felt him once again asking for me to draw him using crayons. So I'm posting both the reference and the drawing here:

It's not perfect because it was just a little quick drawing to get my frustration out since crying wasn't helping but it did make me feel better.

Thanks Apollo, I hope you like the crayon drawing I made for you.

Challenge day!! Collage for Dionysus under the cut (eyestrain warning):

“In the times I struggle most

You were there.

I found you amongst the dirt

while I was wadding through mud.

Around you bloomed daffodils

Lilies, roses, and I even found some pearls.

I scooped your skeleton corpse up from the mud

Like a caterpillar emerging from its cocoon

You grew and grew.

As a pregnant woman, fertile, swollen, ready to bloom,

You burst yourself into my life - into my view.

Halo’d, golden, and shining you stepped forth-

My Goddess Hathor...

You were born.”

Trying to bribe my golden boy into helping me with knowledge acquisition I'm gonna need super soon. Wish me luck!
