Goddess Of Spring - Blog Posts

This is my version of Disney’s Persephone I made a while ago.Her design was inspired to be a combination of https://quantum-witch.deviantart.com/ ‘s Persephone as well as Disney’s background Persephone.

Although, I’m in the minority that prefers to stir away from the incest as much as possible.So in the footsteps of Disney, I gave her a different backstory. It’s similar to Triptolemus but she was a sickly, orphan, baby that was left for dead and the burning was successful. It was Hestia’s fire however instead of a plain ritual fire. So that explains the choice of colors but the freckles represent the pollen that fell onto her when Demeter nursed her.

It’s not entirely kid-friendly, but it’s a nice parallel to Hercules god-to-sort-of-mortal. At least it’s a better backstory than just Zeus doing his non-wife sister.
