Athena has been showing up over the last year or so. It may have started because I’ve been revisiting Greek mythology, stories, and philosophy lately. A lot of that reading seemed to be somehow related to the Iliad & Oddessy, where Pallas Athena plays a huge role.

For whatever reason, Ergane Athena got into my head and took hold of my imagination. The thought of her kept growing and growing in my mind, and I started sketching and drawing her all the time. I ended up with this image of Athena that I wanted to develop further, and here she is, reborn (for me) for the first time in this art.

In the ancient world, Athena was recognized as the goddess of civilization. She was also seen as the goddess of wisdom, arts and craft, inspiration and creativity, strategy, skill, strength, and justice. Many of the things I admire.
