I really don’t need to watch K-Pop Demon Hunters again…

Screenshot of the Redneck Revenant hardcover's back cover with the with the quotes: "His clearest memory of her was when he'd killed her" and "Just because you're done with the past doesn't mean it's done with you." surrounding a wolf mask. the cover is mostly teal green with the wolf head in dark gray. The text beneath that says: Praise for the Adam Binder Series.

Thank you!!

Hera stands in her gardens, a knowing smirk on her face.

Hera, Queen of the Gods, Goddess of women, childbirth, and marriage.
Also 100% tired of the shenanigans of her husband, Zeus, but still looking fabulous and slaying.

Thank you so much! 🥰
I can’t draw a guy without making him hot… hahaha

Hephaestus, God of Blacksmiths, Forges, Fires, and Volcanos.
From his great forge, Hephaestus labors to create magnificent works for the gods.

Drawn art of Annie Binder, at night, ringed by red mist. She's holding a jack-o-lantern with a wolf face beneath a full moon.

Thank you!! 🥰

I read he’s considered the most beautiful Greek God and said “bet.” 😌

Apollo, God of Music and Light
Well, actually, Apollo is the God of a LOT of things; oracles, healing, music, arts, light, archery, knowledge…
He’s considered one of the most important and complex Greek Gods, as well as the most beautiful.

Nyx, Goddess and Personification of Night.
The offspring of Chaos, said to be the first deity, living at the ends of the earth who even Zeus fears to displease.

Thank you so much!! 😁😁

I continue my journey of making Greek Mythology EXTRA sexy.

“Don’t thank me friend… good luck!”
Hermes, Messenger of the Gods!
Another one inspired by Epic: the Musical—
I did a lot of research at various depictions of Hermes in ancient art and then ran it through my aesthetic. And here he is!

This is true! I do try and research actual Greek art and achieve some level of historical accuracy here and there… and fortunately the sexy and scandalous is already built in haha

Thank you!! Look, if there’s one thing about me, I’m gonna make Greek Mythology SEXY.

Uranus, Primordial God of the Sky and Heavens, father of the Titans.

Dipping into some general Greek Mythology this time around! I have a goal to do portraits of Gaia and the Titans as well.

“Keep your friends close and your enemies closer!”
My take on Aeolus from Epic the Musical! Given that Aeolus is voiced by Kira Stone but still referred to as a God with male pronouns I imagine him as an androgynous, mischievous youth playing games with mortals.

Always consciously, my friend! Always consciously. 😌

Poseidon floats above Odysseus against a stormy background. Poseidon wields his trident and his hair turns to watery tentacles grabbing Odysseus menacingly.

“Get in the water!”

When I designed my version of Poseidon with his tentacle water hair I immediately got the idea for a moment like this in Get in the Water.

A Shirtless David King from Dead by Daylight standing in front of a pride flag background while the entity reaches for his leg.

This drawing I did a few years back is doing numbers again, so why not repost it and share it here? Pride Month may be over but David King is gay all year round, baby.

#deadbydaylight #davidking #myart #pridemonth

A figure of Alexander Skarsgård?? Yes, please. Continue.

I posted the wrong version of that fanart so I had to delete and redo the post. Clearly I need more caffeine.

Addam, Rune, and Brand from The Tarot Sequence by @kdedwardsnc.bsky.social

These three hold a very special place in my heart and I needed to draw some fanart of them again.
