Artist's Comments

Cary asked me to do the cover for the collection of Greek tragedies my Greeks class wrote, so of course I accpeted. (with it being Cary and all.

We both agreed on a naked woman being the centerpiece. : )

Naked lady was inspired by one of the covers of the kick-ass Greek play "Lysistrata" where the women go on a sex strike in an attempt to get their husbands to stop the Peloponnesian War.

Though Lysistrata is hardly a tragedy. We're reading it in Wendy's English now and I got assigned Lysistrata. It's crazy how dirty it is.

:3 Great job. We're lucky to have you over at the S1.
