Another sketch from work today, from Greco-Roman mythology. In this story Leda, the girl in the pic, is seduced by a swan. The swan is actually Zeus in the form of a swan, apparently he has wonder twin powers. These mythological stories are great. Zeus really gets around. He's a swan in one myth, an eagle in another, and other animals in other stories, always seducing the earthly mortal woman. I still haven't figured out why he he has to be in the form of an animal to do that.
