Your art looks Pre-Raphaelite (which I adore!) So lovely.

I like it. People should read the sonnet by Yeats to get the full effect of this work.

This is the most beautiful Leda and the Swan I have ever seen.

A very toned down version of the rape of Leda by Zeus in the form of a swan. I don't they ever got the chance to participate in an equally amorous relationship... however if they did.... this would be the perfect painting for symbolizing their love.

Have you published a portfolio of this series? Have you considered such a project? I would love to have copies of these, even in book form, although a portfolio of prints would be nice too.

I like how the swan is covering it's wings around the girl while she is doing her hair. Very feminine and lady-childlike

Leda's skin is like porcelain - the subtle colours are superb and the painting is utterly stunning!

All of your works are so moving! I could favour them all!

Considering that Zeus turned into a swan to seduce Leda, having sex with her (not sure if it was consented or not) in his bird form and then she bore him children is kinda...weird. But then again, Zeus' wife Hera is his sister so yeah...lovely picture by the way. I look forward to scanning through your library

SHE
KILLED
HER
MUM
AND
DAD.
SHE
GOT
SO
BAD
SHE
STARTED
TO
KILL
ALL
THE
STAFF
IN
THE
HOSPITAL
SO
THE
GOVERMENT
DECIDED
THAT
THE
BEST
IDEA
WAS
TO
GET
RID
OF
HER
SO
THEY
SET
UP
A
SPECIAL
ROOM
TO
KILL
HER,
AS
HUMANE
AS
POSSIBLE
BUT
IT
WENT
RONG
THE
MACHINE
THEY
WERE
USEING
WENT
WRONG.
AND
SHE
WAS
SAT
THERE
IN
AGONY
FOR
HOURS
UNTILL
SHE
FINALLY
DIED.
NOW
EVERY
WEEK
ON
THE
DAY
OF
HER
DEATH
SHE
RETURNS
TO THE
PERSON
THAT
READS
THIS
LETTER,
ON
A
MONDAY
NIGHT
AT
12:00
SHE
KREEPS
INTO
YOUR
ROOM
AND
KILLS
YOU,
BUT
SLOWLY
AND
PAINFULLY
SLOWLY
CUTTING
DIFFRENT
PARTS
OF
UR
BODY
THEN
WATCHES
YOU
BLEED
TO
DEATH
IF
YOU
DONT
SEND
THIS
TO
20
PEOPLE
BY
MIDNIGHT
SHELL
BE
COMEING
TO KILL
YOU!
SEND
IT
SO
SHE
HAS
ANOTHER
LOAD
OF
PEOPLE
TO
GET
AND
FORGETS
ABOUT
YOU
DONT
BELVE ME

Beautiful rendition. Nice to see original, aesthetic artwork rooted in tradition, and that does the mythology justice.
