And they say that some foreigner has arrived,
a sorcerer, an enchanter from the land of Lydia,
with sweet-smelling hair in curls,
the wine-dark charms of Aphrodite in his eyes...

An amazing birthday present from @nnobodiusart / @nnobodoodles (want to make sure they get all the credit). Who just made me have all sorts of feels and they spoil me! <3
Ariadne and Dionysus are hands down my favorite Greek mythology couple. They have so much untapped potential and my list for all my head cannons for them are ever growing.
I can guarantee that I will be staring at this multiple times as I get my inspo and creativity flowing to write my story for them!

It was very fun to draw Dionysus cuz I love drawing wavy hair and it easy to work with purple color for me. I wanted to capture him being god of wine and madness at the same time, so I gave him cool neon make up💅💅💅
Also wanna thank you all for kind words about my art!!!! It makes my day brighter to know that y'all like it😭💜💜💜

What could have been...⚡
often considered to be the most important myth of Orphism. Zeus had intercourse with Persephone in the form of a serpent, producing Dionysus (otherwise Zagreus). He is taken to Mount Ida where (like the infant Zeus) he is guarded by the dancing Curetes.
Zeus intended Dionysus to be his successor as ruler of the cosmos, and even as child Dionysus was able to hold Zeus's thunder bolts when he would sit on his lap, which caused Hera to be jealous and fearful of his growing powers, that she incited the Titans to kill the child.
Distracting the infant Dionysus with various toys, including a mirror, the Titans seized Dionysus and tore (or cut) him to pieces. The pieces were then boiled, roasted and partially eaten, by the Titans. But Athena managed to save Dionysus' heart, by which Zeus was able to contrive his rebirth from Semele.
