ARTEMIS: Daughter of Zeus and Leto (a Titaness). The Romans Also knows her as Diana. She is the twin sister of Apollo, goddess of the moon and the hunt. She is also the protector of young animals and human toddlers as well as the patron of the Amazons. Wood nymphs and hounds very often accompany her during the hunt. Zeus commissioned Hephaestus to order the Cyclopes to manufacture a bow and quiver of silver arrows that never empties, base on his design. <br />
<br />
APOLLO: Son of Zeus and Leto (a Titaness). He is the twin brother of Artemis the goddess of the moon. Because of his brilliance appearance he is deemed the god of the sun. Apollo is also considered the god of agriculture, music, poetry, medicine, archery and punisher of overweening self-centered individuals. Apollo too employs a bow and a quiver of golden arrows manufactured by Hephaestus, designed to never empty.
Sorry, but I was compel to prefabricate a quick background in order to display the twins...

jiraThank you! Looking at it now, I'm kinda sorry I didn't take more time to do a better job on the background, but the twin deitys were my main concern...

ToadslyQuinneGroovy! Another great Greek myth drawing. I like the background; it's both a contrast and compliment to the god and goddess. Lovely colours, as well.
