I am so very busy today, but of course, I did want to get a post up. Today, you're getting some modern art I came across today of the Hellenic Gods. In general, I have issues with drawings of the Theoi, and I have issues with these as well, but they are also very, very, pretty. They were made by Fedini, whose DeviantART page can be found here. What I like about these are the variations in skin color (where the women are held to the ancient Hellenic beauty ideal of fair skin). What do you think?

Something went wrong when I clicked onto the Apollo picture. It tried to download into my computer. I don't know if I successfully stopped it.
@srunequester: I'm sorry, I have fixed the link. It should now pop-up properly. No virus, I promise, just me trying to do something too fast this morning.
I saw these drawings a while ago. I personally really liked them. I'm not a fan of cartoon drawings of the Theoi but these ones are the most appropriate ones i've encountered. The only one i didn't really like was the one of Hera. but I really liked the drawing of Apollo, Zeus, and Artemis.
