These face paints are truly fascinating and beautiful, I love the example of this head with the striking contrast created by the red paint against the skin and how it complements the color of the lips, it's a lovely piece! The practice of painting suns on specific parts of the face is particularly intriguing, does it represent a connection to celestial themes?

And Helen using her beauty mark as the center of her forehead makeup is such an interesting idea to think about! It’s like she was born for it and is just showing it off to the world! ✨✨

According to Dares the Phrygian Helen has a beauty mark between her brows! What do you know? Greeks possibly considered moles attractive from that time hehe 😜 but now I remember this amazing mycenaean female head from around 1300 BC

And now I imagine Helen when doing her makeup instead of painting the usual sun on her forehead she just draws the dots around her beauty mark instead! 🤔

Adorable chubby babies 😭❤️

This hits deeply, especially when connected to the fact that Odysseus did not want the deaths of the suitors to be celebrated... Very sad to think about!

Thinking about Eurymachus said that Odysseus used to place him on his knees, feeding him roasted meat and wine makes it for one even more apparent how young the suitors were plus makes his and their betrayal strike deep

Imagine Odysseus hearing that these children he was so close with grew up and now are in his palace harassing his wife and plotting to kill his son! No wonder he tried to warn them till the last moment

Let that sink in!

-O-ooh-oh!

I finally gave in and fed my Sevika Arcane obsession. I'm just gonna leave this here, more soon 🫶

Sevika and my original character Ainara. I may have gone way too deep with these two and ended up building an entire backstory.
