Hmm...it's a long shot, but all of these characters are, in one place and time or another, representative of sexuality. Maybe you go with a title derivative of the concept...you could title it "Lust", "The Seductions" or "The Myth of Yearning" might work. I dunno-I'm the type of artist who thinks that the title should be part of the piece.

This is another piece that is very, very good. Though(hope you aren't offended) this particular one reminds me a lot of the ancient Indian Kama Sutra illustrations. I love it-the detail is great, and the piece as a whole is very well drawn. The composition is balanced and smooth-which is cool because often when there are 3 central characters in a picece, one of them is usually the star of the show-but all three share equally in the sttention grabbing. I really appreciate the work you put into this one! though I have to say that one of my favorite parts of this is the satyr's legs. The hair is saxy and fabulous!Well done!
