Zeus’ passion included artistry, philosophy, astrology, Greek mythology, and the list goes on, who never met a stranger.

Zeus was a caring tender-hearted man who loved his mother unconditionally. That love inspired him to become an impressive worldwide artist. Some of the best ways to sum up his presence; intellectual, very charming, undeniable laughter. His resilience under pressure. Nation loved, a true king. Zeus was priceless.
