Aphrodite, Goddess of Love and Beauty

Since I was a child, I have always read and collected books.  Lots of books.  One of my earliest fascinations in literature was Greek Mythology.  I love to read the ancient stories detailing the adventures and dilemmas of Zeus, Hear, Athena, Apollo, Dionysus, Hades, Aphrodite... on and on.

Of course that means that I love to draw them!  This is an illustration of what the goddess of love and beauty might look like.
