Description
Artemis, the majestic archer Goddess of the moonlit forests and protector of youth and wild creatures. An eternal virgin Goddess, she was extremely protective of her purity and that of her followers. Any slight on her honor was met with vengeance. She was often associated with the Moon, as her twin brother, Apollo, was with the sun, and she was seen as being a fertility goddess due to her assistance with the birth of her brother.Stock used for pose reference is the wonderful

The moon is absolutely amazing in this picture and I love the silver sparkles on it as well!
The moon is my favorite celestial object and this picture made it even more so! I lasso love the detail on her bow and the hairstyle and type of chiton you made her wear! Wonderful work!

I heard she was also thee fastest runner ever. And if i'm not cofused, her father called her back to his kingdom to get her to have an hier, so she'd marry the man who could beat her at a race. If they'd lost, they would die. She also i think was partly raised by she-bears and was strong. I might be confused with the mortal though 
Anyways, very good pic btw! You really got it all right. Luv how you got the moon and swirly stars behind her. Great pose too. Thankies

I've always found it funny how artemis is the goddess of virginity and childbirth. It's a litttle ironic.

A very beautiful picture, although I see Artemis only as the goddess of hunting and Selene as the moon. I really love the coloring and her clothes

Thank you! I always love hearing people's thoughts on the Gods. I've actually been thinking of painting Selene for a while, maybe with Endymion.
