#dionysus greek mythology

[ephemeral-roses]

Felt silly and had the overwhelming urge to draw my version of Dionysus, which proved to be a bad idea because that means he is now running around rampid. Sorry.

I felt like Dionysus' god of madness side isn't recognized as much, so my version has mad as his main trait; he's unpredictable, says strange things, always yelling, etc. I always think of the Horrifc Neck Tie from Disco Elysium (yes, the necktie talks) when I think of him. And of course, he is an absolute party animal (Wild Mike from Barnyard has competition).

He is always wearing a mask, showing off three faces of different emotions to show he is the god of theater, and also very fickle emotionally. The eyes peering through the mask are based off of leopard eyes.

“dionysus went around growing refreshment stands out of the ground, and a beautiful woman walked with him arm in arm- his wife, ariadne. dionysus looked happy for the first time”

is this too much to ask for?

i've had my dionysus design for less than three hours, but if anything bad happens to him, i'm killing everyone in this room and then myself.

Artemis: That’s just a really sad slice of pizza

Apollo: Wanna see a sadder slice of pizza? Look in the mirror

Dionysus: That’d be a sick burn if we were all pizzas

Hey there guys! I know I haven’t posted in a long while but I thought to try posting here again to show off some of my art. On tiktok I’ve been working on this kinda little drawing series where I draw the Greek gods and goddesses in how I perceive them so I’ll show you the ones I’ve done so far. Also they were inspired from listening to epic the musical

Hermes

Poseidon

Apollo

Aphrodite

Hermes and Apollo

Dionysus

Hephaestus

I hope to work on more Greek gods and goddesses in the future but so far these are my completed ones

(and if you really like them I sell these as physical prints in my Etsy shop called Rest In Paint Shop)

honestly Dionysus is an extremely terrifying god

Fr he cursed an entire city with madness and killed and traumatized his own relatives for a mother he never met.

I'm not the strongest guy out there, so I don't think I can bring myself to finish this. Drawing Dionysus is already a pain.

I've been seeing people make versions of Dionysus where he either didn't tell Theseus to leave Ariadne behind and Theseus did it on his own, or that he did tell him, because he knew Theseus wasn't a great guy. I want to let everyone know that DFP Dionysus most definitely told Theseus to leave Ariadne behind. Not because he could sense he wasn't a great person, or that he didn't want him in the way of getting with Ariadne, but because he thought it would be dramatic to have the hero of the story abandon her, as the god of theater and this version of him being disconnected from reality. DFP Dionysus' madness is a very prominent characteristic about him. And my gods are still questionable people, I mean, Hermes killed a tortoise when he was a baby, steals stuff, killed a guy in his sleep, and what not. He's a hardened criminal.

not to brag but,, the fact that my parents named me Ariadne and that my dad owns a vineyard and we make our own wine is my biggest flex in this community 😭
