This is another acrylic painting 20 x 40cm Inspired by the myth of Ariadne, this painting depicts her realization she's been left behind after her lover Theseus has sailed in the night (while she slept). It's an interesting myth, and am not sure I am overly on her side; she helped Theseus slay the minotaur by giving him thread to find his way back out of the minotaur's labyrinth. The minotaur is her family, or at least, half her blood, so she's sorta betrayed her own family - even though he is a monster! The black rose is a symbol of death, hatred, revenge, sorrow or mourning. It can also be used when conveying a farewell (wiki) and I thought it the appropriate flower for this jilted lover. I also put the constellation of her...

The Minotaur, a monstrous offspring of human and bull, roamed the labyrinth, a chilling symbol of unchecked desires. Demanding sacrifices of Athenian youths, it became a terror until the cunning Theseus, aided by Ariadne, navigated the maze's twisting paths and emerged victorious.

I saw a sad-looking statue of the Minotaur (under Theseus, in a pieceby by Canova) in the V&A in London, and was struck by his mostly-human form. I thought he might, like Medusa, seek a better reputation: having been abandoned by his own beastly progenitor (the Cretan bull), imprisoned immediately by a cruel stepfather in a maze-like prison (Minos of Knossos), and forced to kill his only playmates, Asterion (yes, he had a name, the same name as his stepfather’s own stepfather) is now seeking legal representation for paternal abandonment and defamation, and that’s just the start. Looking sharp, Mr Asterion sir! Artwork and photographic background (The Grand Staircase, Knossos Palace) made by Jenks while visiting Crete.
