SciFi and Fantasy Art Artemis by Joshua R. Pinkas


	Here we see the Greek goddess Artemis, goddess of the hunt and protector of children ect...The young girl is an orphsan , forced to survive on her own. The goddess has taken it upon herself to lend a helping hand or two to aid this inexperienced huntress learn how to shoot a bow. She has her work cut out for her hahaha. Watercolor.

24 Sep 2004	Ju	Loading... A very nice piece. I like the way that the background is simpel and not drawing to much attention from the objects. A very good job with the watercolors also, because sometimes when I paint, it tends to run a bit.
28 Apr 2005	Melinda	Loading... Good arrangement of the picture. I, too, like the simplicity of the background. One question - why is the bowstring invisible? I've watched a bit of archery lately, and it seems to me that the string is always visible somehow, even from such a distance as this picture is painted from. Just curious....
20 Jun 2005	Zoe	Loading... Great picture! I must say though, Artemis is protector of young girls, while Apollo is protector of young boys. Artemis doesn't protect young boys. Artemis is pretty cool. I really like archery, but I never done it. Joshua R. Pinkas replies: "um, yes...youhg girls are children...and it's a girl in the picture, so i'm not seeing your problem...glad you like it anyhow though"
9 Jan 2006	Ailia Athena <ailiathena@yah...com>	Loading... I really like this. It could easily be Artemis teaching the abandoned Atalanta to hunt (if only she had done it in person instead of sending others in her place). And as a note to the previous commenter, Artemis was in fact a protector of youth - not just females, although she was more engaged with young women's lives.
8 Dec 2007	Sophia	Loading... Hey Joshua! It's Sophia. Your cousin. I must say, your artwork is really good! I especially like this picture. Keep up the good work!
