Very beautiful! Athena is one of my favorite goddesses from the Greek mythology. Great job on her clothes and on hear wavy hair.I'm glad you put the elements that make you figure she is Athena(the owl, helmet and her weapons). I like the pose you choose to draw her in. It shows her incredible strength and elegance. I also admire everyone who is patient enough to make a background 'cause I don't have that quality.

This is amazing. A lot of pieces of Athena don't fully capture her beauty, wisdom and courage, but you perfectly expressed her entirety.

I love this and all your mythology pieces, the pose is so good in this one, the righteous warfare part of her role is sometimes overlooked but it's really important in the Greek mindset IMO and the pose encapsulates it.

Athena has always been my favorite greek goddess, and your portrayal of her is fantastic! Her hair, her symbols, and all the way down to the hairs in her helmet...gorgeous!
Your backgrounds are realy cool too. How do you get the water and paint to cooperate just right?

She's so majestic, and the pose is simple yet powerful
