Aphrodite Sketch Card - Classic Mythologyby *ElainePerna

Traditional Art / Drawings / Fantasy

A sketch card of Aphrodite from Greek Mythology that I drew for our Classic Mythology trading card set.

Greek Mythology - Aphrodite was the Goddess of Love in Greek Mythology. Aphrodite was born from the sea foam after Cronus threw Uranus' castrated genitals into the sea. She was the wife of Hephaestus. Aphrodite had many consorts/lovers that included (Hephaestus, Ares, Poseidon, Hermes, Dionysus, Adonis, and Anchises). Aphrodite had several children (Eros, Phobos, Deimos, Harmonia, Pothos, Anteros, Himeros, Hermaphroditos, Rhode, Eryx, Peitho, Tyche, Eunomia, The Graces, Priapus and Aeneas). Some of Aphrodite's symbols include the dolphin, rose, scallop shell, myrtle, dove, sparrow, girdle, mirror, and the swan.

Perna Studios is very excited to announce our very first trading card set entitled Classic Mythology. This set will focus on 6 timeless Classic Mythologies that we have all come to love and enjoy during our lifetime. The mythologies spotlighted in this set are Greek, Norse, Egyptian, Celtic, Japanese and Hindu. We have an impressive list of artists involved on this set working on both base/promo cards and sketch cards.
