Harpy 🌘 My Character Drawing

in #hive-1565093 years ago

It seems that I am returning again to my favorite artistic theme - the legends of Ancient Greece. I couldn't get past Harpia this time 😅

In myths, these delightful woman-birds are represented by vicious kidnappers of children and human souls. Harpies are one of the most ferocious and ugly characters in Greek mythology. They, like other monsters, terrify people and are often depicted in the form of wild women-birds of a disgusting look with wings and long sharp claws, but with a head and female chest.

I decided to move away from the ferocious image and romanticize the main character a little. I made her features softer, close to an ordinary woman. She is rather sad and thoughtful than embittered and ready for battle.
