Description
"Beyond the Fields of Asphodel,where the souls wander in sorrow,
beyond the Acheron waters,
there I will wait for your return.
I walk away around shadows,
listening moans of pain and despair,
but the voices of thousand ghouls
will not ease your memory in my head.
And now that leaves fall around Earth,
a golden carpet will lead you to me.
And with the cold wind of the winter,
six pomegranate seeds do their duty.
Here, deep in the Underworld
you will find our ebony throne,
and your voice of promises and whishes
will bring life to the eternal dreamers."
My own version of Hades & Persephone. In the picture I portrayed they both, with Cerberus. At the left we can see Charon in his boat and the river Acheron, and in the other side the river Phlegethon, made of fire.
There's a step by step of this one here: [link]
Done in Photoshop.

This is probably one of my favorite pieces of artwork. I mean, EVER. It's beautiful, and incredibly well-done. It looks realistic, and they look very human-like, which makes them relatable as people.
I also particularly love how you chose to portray Hades and Persephone. Hades doesn't have that incredibly dark, creepy appearance to to him; he looks softer, more sensitive and attentive. Persephone doesn't look like this innocent little girl, she looks more like a grown woman. It is as if each of their character traits rubbed off on each other and this work shows the result.
Excellent work, dark-spider!

Nice art! I would like to ask for permission if it's okay to have your art be part of my list on my site? I am looking forward to feature some great gods and goddesses on my site. You can check out my site here, at the bottom. Of course I'll put a credit that this is your own art.
Hope you'll agree! \(^_^)/

You captured what I can truly see as Hades and Persephone. He as a gentleman, and she the picture of youth.
