High Devotee of the Mad Goddess
She’s over the top but when your goddess is a wild three-headed bird woman you gotta have style.
Included the old version from a couple years ago because wow! Drawing really does improve if you just do it all the time lol.

Knight and Midsummer eve (happy pride 🏳️🌈)

Always will admire Dionysus story, to be that of a "hero's journey"
He lived in hiding, a life to understand his godly powers, survived kings, a vengeful queen, went to wars, had to prove himself spread his cult , yet constantly getting underestimated, looked down upon, but still persisting.
After finally achieving godhood the last obstacle being a seat among the gods looking unreachable,only for the grace from one goddess to finally seal his journey complete
Eurytus was one of the Giants, sons of Gaia, who got eliminated by Dionysus during the Gigantomachy ⚔️

I've known a number of non binary people in my life and I think single biggest conclusion I can draw from that is that non binary people are not the same. Like if Men fit in box A and women fit in box B, people really, really want nonbinary people to fit in a theoretical box C, and it just doesn't work like that. They are outside the boxes. They defy any simple categorization because they are not a third way of being, but every other possible way of being.
Being supportive of binary people is relatively simple, they have decided to sort themselves into one of the boxes that we have lots of experience interacting with. Being supportive of nonbinary people can be comparatively tricky, because you have to resist the urge to create box C and drop them all there. That's how we end up with various prejudices like "woman lite". Humans really, really like to categorize things. It helps us think. Unfortunately, sometimes it helps us think wrong.
If you have a non binary person in your life, I think it is important to take the extra effort to learn about them specifically.
#frankly boxes a and b work this way too if you're not operating under systemic delusions
Ok I understand what is being said here, but I disagree. Binary gender can be just as personalized and unique as non binary gender, but there is a world of practical difference between someone who is binary enough that they can give you man or woman as a starting point that society at large understands and has a place for, and someone who has to start from scratch with nearly everyone they ever meet.
When I say I am a trans woman, I am declaring that I fit inside the societal space for "women" well enough for that to be a solid basis for others to understand and interact with my gender. Even though there is a great deal of nuance within "woman", I generally feel I am in many ways skirting the edge of that category, and society is often hostile to me based on my declared gender, the fact I am able to align myself this closely with a binary gender gives me a great deal of advantages that non binary people do not have.
There is a temptation as trans binary people to say that because our gender is just as nuanced and personal as a nonbinary person (which is true) and our declared gender is often rejected (also true), the fact we align with the major accepted categories does not give us major advantages - which simply isn't the case. Being binary comes with a good deal of privilege that is almost invisible to us, but non binary people have to deal with lacking that privilege.
It is that gap in privilege I am talking about specifically. It is that gap in privilege that makes it necessary for us to put extra effort into understanding non binary people. So no, binary genders do not work the same way.
And look, if you find that using a binary starting point is more of a hindrance to people understanding you than a help, it might be worth considering if you are non binary.
so metropolitan museum of art has a register of books they’ve published that are out of print and that you can download for free! they’re mostly books on art, archeology, architecture, fashion and history and i just think that’s super useful and interesting so i wanted to share! you can find all of the books available here!
That is amazing, why can’t more institutions do this!
The amount of books I haven’t been able to read because they are out of print is to large, and I don’t have the money to buy them all second hand (since there aren’t that many copies to begin with so they are not cheap)
Ariadne, I think we're a little lost
Aphrodite’s sacred animals including geese and swans should be the first sign of how scary she is
Desire!

dionysus and his favourite aunt
my general opinion on what people should be "allowed" to portray and what topics they should be "allowed" to explore in fiction is that you can make whatever art with whatever themes you want but i'm also allowed to think the way you handled it was tasteless and should've been done differently. my negative opinion on your handling of sensitive topics is the price of admission for publicly showcasing your work. this is not a pro-censorship stance because i am not The Government
Drew some self-indulgent stuff to celebrate that I was free to draw what I want again. It was such a long time since I drew Hades and Persephone. ^^
