Artemis//{NSFW warning on some images} Rewards Here
Added 2021-07-07 11:44:40 +0000 UTCGoddess of the Hunt, Wild Animals, and the moon. She is one of the most respected of all the anctient Greek deities. She was the daughter of Zeus and Leto and the twin sister of Apollo.
Artemis is definitely a favorite of mine. Even though she is an Olympian, she is actually pretty reclusive. Much prefering to be in the woods with the animals and her nymphs then to mingle with other gods and mortals. She is also very badass, and like most of the gods, very vengeful.
In one myth I listened to while working on this piece, a hunter stumbled upon her as she was bathing in a forest river with her nymph friends, and she got PISSED that he saw her in nood. So what does a goddess do when she's upset? She cursed, him of course!
When he uttered even a single word, he would be transformed into a deer. So what's the first thing he does? He calls out to his fellow hunting party and is immediately transformed into a deer.
Anyhoo, I hope you guys like her! She is often depicted with her hunting dog and I decided part way through that I needed to add her doggo. haha Her doggo is a very happy pup.

Ahh! Thank you! Yeah, I am really curious to see what the vote will be like this time around. Hopefully we'll reach another milestone soon and I can just do double prints again sometime in the coming months. haha

2021-07-09 20:50:43 +0000 UTCThank you so much!! Yeah, she is often shown with a deer, which is actually what I kind of sketched out initially but with how the composition came together I ended up needing to remove the deer. But then I felt like she still needed an animal companion somewhere! And I remember that there are some works of her with her hunting dog and this the decision was made! Lol. But I actually wouldnβt mind doing more artworks of her in the future featuring some other animals and aspects of her nature. Honestly I want to draw each of these goddesses again in different ways someday.

2021-07-08 16:27:39 +0000 UTCThat's an interesting way to look at it and it could be the case. I've only heard one version of the telling and it seemed like she was generally pretty upset that he saw her at all but maybe you are right in that the curse itself was to prevent him from making the situation worse by calling is friends over.

2021-07-08 07:24:40 +0000 UTCI imagine Artemis didn't get pissed at the hunter just for seeing her nude, but for calling out to his party. I'd be embarrassed if I was in her position, but I wouldn't be outraged until the hunter did something stupid like alert his friends. I may be wrong, yet I want to know the whole story.
