Greek mythology from A to Z:

[O] - Orpheus (Ὀρφεύς) was a musician, poet and prophet. He was considered the best musician and poet of all, and he perfected the lyre. It was the god Apollo who taught Orpheus how to play the lyre when he was an adolescent. According to a source, his music had the ability to charm the animals and make the trees dance.

Norse mythology from A to Z:

“Death of Hyacinthus”

Out of jealousy, the west wind Zephyrus causes Apollo’s discus to strike Hyacinthus and kill him. Apollo creates hyacinths from the prince’s blood so that his soul lives on through the flowers.

For composition & characters, I took inspiration from Tiepolo’s “Death of Hyacinthus” and Botticelli’s “The Birth of Venus.”

Follow-up piece from the Apollo/Hyacinthus I painted last year. Notes, process & closeups can be found below the cut
