Artist's Comments

I've always loved Persephone, the caught-between-two-worlds goddess of the underworld/personification of the spring. I've shown her preparing to return to the upper world in time for Spring, as Cerberus the three headed hound of Hades guards her loyally.

Thanks! It took a while to get the light right, so I'm glad it is attention-getting!
