Why did you make this work:
In 2023 I created a series of illustrations about Greek goddesses and gods, the ultimate divas of Mount Olympus. I have always been obsessed with Greek mythology: the stories are intricate, epic and visionary and all the characters are campy and over the top, so I couldn't help but give my take on them. This series include Hermes, Aphrodite, Ares, Athena and Hades among others.

What materials and techniques did you use?:
Digital Illustration - Procreate on iPad Pro


How were your illustrations used:
I created this series of illustrations for fun, to practice some character design, and to hone my personal style by exploring one of my favorite topics. I used them to promote my work on my social networks and to enrich my portfolio, as well as selling them as prints in my personal shop.
