Description
The Muse of tragedy, Melpomene is one of the nine Goddesses of inspiration and the arts in Greek myth. She carries the tragic mask, entwined with grape leaves to show Her connection with Dionysos as God of the dramatic arts. I've put Her in somber colors, and given Her himation a little blue teardrop-shaped weight.Pen and ink with watercolor, done for a commission.

Thank you! They are traditionally called the 'violet-crowned Muses', so it seemed appropriate.
