The dacian version of the legend of the Pleiades and the goddess Bendis

This oil on canvas painting is about what the romanians call "sanziene", a dacian legend about 7 young maidens that follow the goddess Bendis like the pleiads follow Artemis. They are immortal eternal virgins like the virgin goddess they follow and they punish men who try to get close to them.
This painting is representing the 7 sisters (Pleiades in greek mythology, sanziene in the dacian mythology), the goddess Bendis for dacians, Diana for romans and Artemis for the greeks and the poet Sappho singing about them (Sappho has written some poems about the Pleiades)

The legend of Actaeon

My painting of Artemis and Actaeon turned into a stag by her

The goddess Artemis was an eternal virgin and being watched and wanted by a man was what she hated the most so she turned the hunter Actaeon, who was watching her while she was naked, into a stag.
