This image visualizes a really wholesome moment in the tale, and it gave me warm fuzzies while painting it! I love the idea that the animals are held captive by Orpheus’s skill, so I wanted to make sure to get a good variety of animal audience members in attendance. And with Eurydice, I wanted to emphasize her oak tree nymph roots, so I placed her literally emerging from the tree.
