Description Hades, Greek god of the underworld.

In Greek mythology, Hades, the god of the underworld, was a son of the Titans Cronus and Rhea. He had three sisters, Demeter, Hestia, and Hera, as well as two brothers, Poseidon and Zeus, the youngest of the three.

After the gods defeated the Titans, the world was divided into three and Zeus, Hades and Poseidon drew straws to decide which they would rule. Zeus drew the skies, Hades the underworld, and Poseidon the seas. There is only one reference to this divide, by Homer in the Iliad.


I did not draw this, I only added the color -- Adult coloring books by Jade Summer, Greek Mythology

Nice job!

How would you rate the Prismacolor Premier Markers? I find the the Prismacolor Premier pencils excellent, but I use them in combination with other brands.

The Premier Markers are very nice.  I have some in my collection that are close to 10 years old and they 
still work just fine.  You do have to remember to use them on very smooth paper or you will destroy 
the tips.  The best choice for paper is something that declares it's for marker use.  I prefer Crescent 
Graffiti Paper, it's very smooth and does not bleed ink out of your markers. www.dickblick.com/products/cre…

Have you ever tried the Blick Studio colored pencils?  www.dickblick.com/products/bli…
I find I like them better than almost all the wax based pencils I have used.  I did this one only with the Blick pencils and I did not 
do any, chemical blending.  I liked the "toothy" look of it so I left it alone.
