Greek mythology collage drawing #6 - LEDA AND THE SWAN (Pencil on paper) by Romaan Namoor. (NSFW)steemCreated with Sketch.

in drawing •  7 years ago 

The greek tragedy continues with this sixth drawing: 'LEDA AND THE SWAN.' A story that inspired many artists, now myself included.

Background info from wikipedia:

Leda is the wife of the Spartan king Tyndareos and known for the story of "Leda and the swan". Zeus was in love with her, but could not persuade her to have sexual intercourse, for this he turned himself into a swan and overwhelmed Leda. Embarrassed for what had happened, Leda had intercourse with her husband that night and after nine months she had children who, according to certain traditions, came from an egg. Pollux and Helena were the children of Zeus, Kastor and Klytaimnestra of Tyndaeros.

Fantastic sketch... did you have made some postproduction on this one?

What do you mean with postproduction?

I mean... after scanning or photographing this sketch... are you do some photoshop adjustments as well?

Well, I edit my photos with a simple photo editor on my phone (Don't have photoshop). Editing the saturation and white/dark balance, nothing more... All the rest is craft work ;)

ah... yeah... thats what i meant... Great stuff...

I liked the flow of shapes. Very suggestive 😉
