Nowadays everything that we can refer to as the awaken spiritual part of humanity comes from the culture of ancient civilizations which once inhabited the Earth. Through myths and legends they tell us about their lives and customs, their
beliefs and how they connect the life here and the afterlife. They use such rich language and philosophies that now in these pragmatic times they seem like a beautiful fiction. This well of "living water" which is right on the borders of the real and the imaginary world is an original mixture of literary characters, gods, mortals as well as beautiful landscapes and epic battles between good and evil. To put it shortly- in our history the gods act like people because they are seen and described by the people themselves.
Unfortunately for us little by little this well of wisdom is running dry. By killing Nature we also kill the gods with who we speak. We remain alone in the deserts. Deserts of arrogance and self ignorance. Sands of egoism where the main role is played only by death... In a irreversibly gone and forever lost past and future of the humans... This is how I made "Diana". I could have written more but who is going to draw!
P.S. Dear friends of dA, ten of you who write me something on this or other mythological topic will receive an original copy of "DIANA". You can also participate in this modest(

) contest if you write about something that touched you from your life.

not to be long-winded but this piece has inspired me...
as a wiccan i think that the idea of more than one god that are more human in many ways is so much more logical than one perfect god...take greek mythology the gods have major flaws and do evil things and that is reflected in us but the idea of one god who isn't evil in any way isn't logical because supposedly in most modern religions humankind was made in the image of god...
i'm sorry this is long, u just got me thinking i really love this piece a fav+
you really portrayed Diana and her presence a beautiful way
