Athena - goddess of wisdom and war, and favourite daughter of Zeus the almighty.
We've all seen her in full arm, looking like girlpower you don't mess with, in that amazing helmet, breastplate or shield carrying the gorgon-head and usually carrying a spear or a sword.
Those pictures shows a fabulous goddess of course, but I wanted to show another side of her. The civilan Athena. The Athena at home, when she softs at Olympos on her day off, perhaps on her way to listen to Apollo's latest songs, to gossip with some of all her sisters or head off to the library to get something new to read. And all the time accompanied by her faithful pet owl.
The silver beings behind are her automatons, robot-like servants made by her half-brother Hephaestos.

I'm working on a "Where Are They Now"-type Greek mythology fan-fiction with a twist. Basically, in my stories, the casts of various mythologies are actually aliens. Gaia is actually the home world of the Greek mythological cast. Athena is 1 of 2 Olympians to be characters in the story. In the story, she likes interstellar hitchhiking, & carries a small device that looks like a largish electronic calculator. It is, in fact, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. On Earth, her home is an obscure part of New York City called "Staten Island", where she hosts a radio show called Nerdcore-type Interview Progrum consisting of interviews with famous smart people. When cavorting with humans, the Greek gods use the surname "Abernakis" (a corruption of my urologist's surname, "Armenakis") & have DNA scanners to prove they are gods. The only other Olympian to be a central character in the story is Aphrodite. Aside from Athena & Aphrodite, the story is mostly about the primordial deities, the titans, the deified mortals, the abstractions, the nymphs, & the bestiary characters.
