"Heroes and Gods" - Postcard

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)

This week's Sunday Postcard Art challenge was "Idol or Hero."

The theme was for someone who you admire, but my piece deviated from that, because I used "hero" in the mythology / fairy tale sense of the word. I'm not completely happy with my end result. Artist's block has been creeping back in on me.

I created this using GIMP 2.10.10.

The vintage images are from an Internet search. (See the side of my blog for links.)

I've been reading books of old
The legends, and the myths
Achilles, and his gold
Hercules, and his gifts

Where'd you wanna go?
How much you wanna risk?

Hello,

Wonderful image. Pegasus is my favorite, a symbol of high flying imagination.

Enjoy your day, wishing you a happy new week ahead!
