Acrylic painting on canvas board.
 
5x7 inches (13x18cm)
 
This is an original painting, acrylic on canvas board by chewiegummybearart. This painting is inspired by Madeline Miller's book, the Song of Achilles. 
 
This art piece is my attempt to imagine a teenage Achilles, warm, playful, romantic, and tender, as depicted in Madeline Miller's world. Achilles is training with Chiron on the mountain top and singing his melody with a wooden lyre.

Would you, 
 
choose a short life and honor, 
 
or, a long life with obscurity?
 
The war is from within, 
 
and sung in a song of Achilles.
