So, for the third god/goddess in my series I chose Demeter, goddess of harvest, sacred law and the cycle of life and death.
She was well known for her grief when Hades took her daughter Persephone and causing famine while searching for her child.
There are many versions of the story but it was believed that, since Persephone ate 6 pomegranate seeds, she spent 6 months with her mother and 6 months with her husband, which resulted in the fertile and barren months.
I attempted to go for a darker skintone and very warm colours as a metaphor for fertile earth and warmth of a mother's love.
