Description

The Rites of Spring bring forth the Virgin bedecked with flowers to represent the earth goddess. She ventures into the forest to enchant the stag who is transformed into the Lord of the Forest, the Stag of the Seven Tines. The Stag Lord pursues and the Spring Virgin flees from him, but her flight is half-hearted. For she knows the Stag Lord will overtake her and their ritual coupling will bring fertility to the land and the blessings of Mother Earth. Hello dear friends, I have been so busy these last weeks I haven't been able to be in the galleries much. This image has just been sitting on my hard drive waiting for some time to upload it. I figured I needed to soon, or spring would be over! Thank you for taking a look, and for your comments and favorites. Your support is greatly appreciated. This images loses a bit in downsizing, so please ZOOM for a better view! The Stag Lord is played by Mst Ciro from Mstene The Spring Virgin is played by PD Dakota from P3Design Previously: "Hermes Ascends"

Sheeeesh. I feel like they're going to frolic right off the page into real life. And I know if that was me I'd be really glad her flight is halfhearted because she looks like she could run fast! :) LOL. Stunning, beautiful work and gorgeous characters.

Alessimarco, you do realize that with this beautiful render you have successfully illustrated where the word "horny" comes from, don't you? Beautiful work!

Glad you have posted it, Brother! A beautiful backstory that reflects Apollo and Daphne. The poses are graceful as if they are both in a playful mood. Wonderful art, as always!
