Great artwork! This reminds me of a statue-group from antiquity, which features the goddess Venus/Aphrodite holding her sandal as a weapon against the advances of a Satyr (maybe Pan himself) with the help of Cupid/Eros, who tries to fend off the cloven-footed fella. Have you seen those statues? Anyhow; well painted!
