Goddess Diana: Hunter of the Night

This painting is inspired by the breathtaking Fontaine de Diane sculpture at the Louvre. The piece was created in 1549 but, the identity of the sculptor is considered uncertain.

I wanted to capture her strength, grace, and that untamed moonlit energy.

I’m layering darker tones to give this piece a shadow effect —like the sculpture’s marble glow at night.

Diana is the Roman goddess of the hunt, the moon, and the wilderness. She is a powerful symbol of independence, strength, and protection of nature. Often depicted with a bow and arrows, Diana moves freely through forests and mountains, untouched and self-governed.

She represents a form of feminine power that is not defined by softness or submission, but by clarity, focus, and self-mastery.

I am deeply inspired by Diana because she embodies pure female power—wild, disciplined, and sovereign.

Her figure is not created to please, but to command respect. This strength motivates me to create paintings of her, using her image as a celebration of autonomy, inner force, and creative freedom. Through art, Diana becomes not only a mythological goddess, but a timeless source of inspiration for resilience, confidence, and feminine identity.
