ARTFUL THURSDAY: King Of The Gods- My, You've Aged Well!

Since November to December was the ancient Greek lunar month of Maimakterion, and since the principle deity worshiped during this month was Zeus... then HE is the subject of this week's Artful Thursday. From King of the Gods to boss of the video game God of War, Zeus has captured our imagination. All men have wanted to be him. All women have wanted to be with him, including those Zeus had to transform himself into animals in order to seduce... but that's fodder for another blog post.

Without further ado... Zeus!























And here's another wonderful rendition
