Title: Persephone
Name: Joel Furtado
Country: Canada
Software: Painter

This is my take on Persephone, who In Greek mythology was the Queen of the Underworld, and the parthenogenic daughter of Demeter and in later Classical myths, a daughter of Demeter and Zeus. She chooses to become the consort of Hades when he becomes the deity that governs the underworld.
This painting was a test for me in painting intricate details. All done by hand in Painter 9, with minor adjustments in Photoshop.

Here's a detail of the head...

Very Nice! I love the colours in this image! Nice original character, it makes a nice change from the traditional fantasy art. This image totaly reminds me of a videogame called Rez.

Thanks for sharing, 4 Stars! :thumbsup:

Everything about this is awesome to me. The unique concept, the bold colors, and most importantly, the style, technique and proficiency with which it was painted. 5 stars!
