With this piece I had an opportunity to portray the death of medusa in a fresh way. Firstly, I chose to emphasize the birth of Pegasus and Chrysaor from the blood, which I havent seen portrayed too often. And second, I wanted to emphasize both the invisibility of Perseus (wearing Hades helmet) and Athena's role in assisting the kill stroke. It's been such a joy to illustrate iconic scenes like this, especially when the source material provides content and details that most artists don't seem to use. It excites me to present these fresh portrayals to fans of Greek myths and newcomers alike.
