This is a challenge to post every day in April (except on Sundays) blogging thematically from A to Z. Go HERE for details. My A-Z theme this year is Greek Mythology inspired by the book The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan that I recently read. Please be aware that what I writeis my interpretation of my findings and may not necessarily be accurateare straight quotes.
Also, "Featured Book" at the end of these posts are books I've reviewed in this book blog, coinciding with the letter of the day.
I couldn't find any Greek mythology that started with the letter "v" so I bring to you Greek vase paintings instead. --I had trouble uploading a set (12 images) but there's plenty here to view (for the complete gallery, go to the link source below).

OMG!! One of my fave pieces of art is a Greek vase (or water container) with an octopus painted on. Going to try and post a link here--just gorgeous. http://wilblake.com/Blakegraphic/ancientart/OctopusVase.html
