"Medusa" Original Painting

✨Legend states that Medusa🐍 was once a beautiful, avowed priestess of Athena who was cursed for breaking her vow of celibacy. I wanted to capture her as a beautiful goddess, not as a monster, but as a strong, powerful and magnificent woman.

The painting was created on 50x60 cm canvas with mixed media technique such as oil paints, gold leaf and marker by the artist Erika Mihalec.
