“The Queen of Hearts
She made some tarts,
All on a summer's day;
The Knave of Hearts
He stole those tarts,
And took them clean away.” 🃏❤️
Were inspired from the Halloween posts that I & @greypetrel shared with each other, since both of us still love gothic macabre spooky stuffs & didn’t want Halloween to fully go away. ♥️🃏

The 1st card depicted the clothing that I often drew them the most:Bronze Age Cypriot-Mycenaean Greek version & Classical-Hellenistic Greek version.

The 2nd one depicts Aphrodite in the festive rouziettin dress that comes from Cyprus’ urban areas & its traditional rural counterpart. It bears similar to the traditional Amalia dress of mainland Greece, and a lot of traditional wedding dresses were also festive dresses, after all. For Ares, his military fustanella dress comes from the region of northern Greece (perhaps somewhere in Macedonia-Thrace since he had always been associated with the military aspects as ”the god of war” & the northern barbarians). He also wore his Pontic Greek clothing as the god himself was also mythologically associated with that area, too. (The story of the Golden Fleece came to mind, as well as Ares’ island and the Amazons, too.)

an illustration i made last year for a friend of mine as a gift! all pieces of clothing, accessories, and even the hairstyle was directly inspired by or taken from Mycanean and/or Minoan frescoes, grave sites, or pottery fragments. the goal was to create an original design for a bronze age Artemis and this still remains one of my favorite pieces I've done in a while! the main liberty i took was with the colors in the outfit as i wanted them to reflect a palette that was more reminiscent and recognizable as the goddess that we all know.
