Description

"I am," she sang, "I am the pleasing siren, who in midsea leads mariners astray--there is so much delight in hearing me..." -- The Siren in Canto 19 of Dante Alighieri's Purgatorio.

I made this painting with Dante's depiction of the sea witch that almost drowned Ulysses in his journey.

Done with watercolor and Photoshop CS2
