I always love seeing these videos! Also, Psyche does the trials to win favor with Aphrodite to prove she’s worthy of Eros/her freedom. The reason that it’s a betrayal when Psyche looks at Eros is because it was an agreement at the beginning of their relationship, basically Eros didn’t want her to see him because it could blow her mind in a sense. He also didn’t want to piss his mom off more 💀 There’s more reasoning behind it but thats basically what it boils down to
This is gorgeous!! I am a classicist (I have a degree in ancient history/language) her name “ψυχή” means soul or spirit in attic Greek 🫶🏼 Edit (more info dump): The pose, Eros/Cupid holding her wrist is the wedding scene. It is referencing ancient depictions of weddings (man grabbing or holding woman’s arm).
"Consent level unknown but based on Greek mythology....it's not looking good." Had us laughing...it's so true those stories are so messed up. 🤣 This piece came out lovely, one of my favorites!
This was a wonderful make it gay piece !! Loved the creative choices in representation with the henna and warm south Asian skin and the vitiligo and long hair 😍
Gosh I love your art so much, It's just so beautiful! The way you can create such beautiful pieces is so so amazing! You're such an inspiration, I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's day as well! ❤💫
That's so beautiful 😍😍 I started this video as sort of a background secomd-screen thing. But I was so mesmerized I had to stop everything I was doing to watch. The transparency on the cloth? Slay. I'd be interested in a print of this ♥
Thought this piece was super stunning! I also loved it with the finished figures on the unfinished pink background (but the full finished piece is amazing too!)
As always, I love hearing about your creation process for this piece and seeing it come together! And your sass during the story recap was perfection 😆 As an aside regarding bowers, I recommend checking out bowerbirds for a smile! The males spend years creating their bowers and collecting whatever they find attractive to try to impress the females. Their collections can vary from flowers to mushroom and even shiny beetles 💜

Isn’t Cupid a male? I’ve been under the impression my whole life that Cupid was a male fairy type creature that goes around creating love matches between male/female couples. I don’t understand why everything in the world is being re-written into being lgbtq to the point where even my little pony is gay.

I think the butterfly wings may have to do with the idea of her transformation or metamorphosis from mortal to goddess

girl greek mythology is.... absolutely insane sometimes lmao
I love it ❤❤❤ Great painting! I like the mixture of highlights, light and dark. I wish I could be confident to colour skin and big portraits.
This is now one of my favorites of this series, the two ladies’ faces are so warm.
I loved the format of the video with you telling us about the myth, and the process and the final result looks amazing. Love it 🥰

That backstory sounds so much like a book I read as a teenager called East by Edith Pattou, but the sleep was actual sleeping 😅
The butterfly is in the bottom right corner of the original, it’s small, white, and sitting on a rock :D
Gorgeous!!! This piece is such a slay
