The snake like hair is really cool. I like the top human half and the bottom snake half. The moon in the sky and the building in the back is neat.

Wow, this is great! Presentation and visual impact is dramatic and impressive. Very nice detail work! Highlighting and shading are beautifully rendered. Wish I had a 6 to give. Well done, my friend!

Great depiction of Medusa in front of the temple ruins.Love the strong determination in her eyes and the set of her jaw,and what a great,unruly nest of vipers she has for hair! A very powerful image nicely showcased here with great form-many thanks for sharing your creation! :)

Your details of the Greek architecture are incredible along with your Greek goddess. Your goddess is spectacular with that stare on her face and those piercing eyes. Wonderful futuristic storytelling with this Greek mythology painting. You have put your heart & soul into this art work. Beautiful colors and sky....nice how you included the moon. Worthy of a six star! Outstanding work and thanks for sharing.

Your talent shows so well in this work! The details and how well you create them is amazing! She's an interesting character for sure, her eyes really draw the viewer in great choice of colors and very interesting to view this!

Love, love, love the temple! Brings back wonderful memories of traveling to Greece and Turkey. Now that chic has some issues. That Hair! Nice composition. Wonderful ideas. I kinda want to make her stand out more from the background. I feel like she is getting lost a little. She's so cool. I want her to pop a little. Great as always. Thanks for sharing.

Nice drawing, I hope you were using a mirror to paint this model. The structure in the. back helps to set the place. The gorgon is well created, even tough I think her "hair" could have been even wilder and more menacing. I am not sure the texture of the canvas board is helping this image, I find it a bit distracting and keep looking at it because it feels like you missed something. This might have worked better on a rough paper. Over all a good image.

Did you turn to stone while painting her as in Greek Mythology? Nicely done, good lines and nice color. Good depth added to the piece with the crumbling structure and the moon above. Good story also, thanks for sharing. HAGD.

Comment from Malmax


This is a brilliant work of art.
I love Medusa and this is an excellent portrayal of her. The ancient temple in the background is perfect for this
Greek mythology character.
Detailan shadows are outstanding and so well done.
Love viewing your art, so much talent in your pieces.
