A new painting of Aphrodite and Galatea

This is my newest painting of the goddess Aphrodite giving life to the statue Galateea, Pygmalion's greation and love. This myth from the greek mythology represents me be cause, like Pygmalion did, I have my own Galateea and I paint it over and over again the only thing that is missing is Aphrodite to bring her into my life

My Galateea

This is my watercolor painting of Aphrodite giving life to Galateea, the statue Pygmalion, her creator was in love with.

Just like Pygmalion did, I have my own Galateea, my own dream of love and beauty, the perfect lady of my mind. I’ve made many drawings and paintings of her, over 2000. Every time I feel lonely the only thing I can see in my mind is her. My brain created her but I am so in love with her and the only thing I need is Aphrodite to give life to her and bring her into my real life.

Sappho, Erinna and the maidens celebrating Aphrodite

This is my watercolor painting of Sappho, Erinna(a poet who was her student) and two of the young maidens Sappho used to initiate in the beautiful art of poetry and feminity in the temple of Aphrodite, celebrating the goddess.
I've made this afther I read the poem "Hymn to Aphrodite" by Sappho

.This is the way I imagine Sappho and the young girls singing this hymn and Aphrodite coming down to the temple to listen to their praiers
