Because I am particularly fond of minotaurs, and also because I feel they are all too commonly perceived as bloodthirsty killers, I drew this. It was originally a pencil drawing of a minotaur woman, but I couldn't get the front of her dress just right, so I drew in a minotaur child to cover it up. It was colored in Photoshop.

sweet, I agree that they (minotaurs) are far too commonly preceived as bloodthirsty killers. Good concept, great picture 2

I think minotaurs are seen as bloodthirsty killers because the Minotaur of Crete was a bloodthirsty killer.

I agree... this does show them as they should be. I mean, cows are after all portrayed as the mother and care takers in many religions. This picture is particularily sweet. And the coloring is gorgeous. *tears up* I wish I had Photoshop...

It's a very tender picture with the addition of the child. I like the soft shading.

How could a cow be bloody thirsty anyway? If you made pigs then maybe... Very cute picture. It's so sweet.
