With this image, I wanted to create a circular composition that would lead the eye around in a clockwise manner from the top where the chariot and sun stand as a focal point. I chose not to do Bellerophon as his own illustrated series in my book due to time constraints, so I was happy to at least display him here for those who may not be familiar with his tale. Although I think the color palette works well in general, if I could redo this image I would choose a darker and more frightening color palette to better represent the tragic nature of the poor mortals.

We, prideful mortals, display the ancient concept of hubris, a grave offense characterized by excessive pride and defiance against the gods and the natural order. Hubris goes beyond mere arrogance, encompassing acts of boasting, insult, or violence that challenge divine authority. The consequences are tragic for us doomed mortals who succumb to it, such as Icarus who flies too high to the sun, Phaethon who thinks he can control the sun chariot of his father, Helios, and Niobe, who boasts of her children’s superiority. Let our pitiful lives serve as cautionary tales against the dangers of unchecked arrogance.
