#ClassicsTober day 22: MOTHER

A line drawing with watercolour colouring of Persephone and Demeter in a cafe. I imagined them meeting after Persephone’s been away ‘down under’. Demeter is a bit more cuddly, still wearing a cardi despite Spring having arrived but in bright spring colours: her ancient-style pleated dress is green, her cardi is orange with golden floral buttons (to match her earrings), and she wears a red hair scarf. And glasses. She and Persephone have the same dark brown hair, P’s down along her back and D’s up and curly. Demeter has a natural fibre Bag For Life by her feet, with a cornucopia on it. 
Persephone is embracing the Queen of the Underworld thing but not letting it define her. She’s still pale from being underworld, has a nose piercing, lots of jewellery, but still her gold crown. She has lots to tell and is animated. Her slip on shoes are hanging off her feet. Her bag is under the table: it is black and red with a chain handle. In it are a bone and some crocuses. Her dress is dark with buttons and a long skirt slip so it falls open over her knees. There is a pattern of skulls and pomegranate slices. Persephone definitely shops at Disturbia 😉. Behind them is a cafe window. Reversed Greek letters give the name of the cafe as ‘Cafe Spring’. By Greek Myth Comix.
Persephone and Demeter meet for a coffee.

Inspired by this tweet from Dr Ellie Mackin-Roberts:

Dr Ellie M Mackin-Roberts tweets:
“Things I want in life: a drawing or print of #Persephone and #Demeter sitting at a cafe having a coffee and catching up in the style of mothers and adult daughters who have a supportive and loving relationships. 

Someone more talented than me will need to take this up.”
