Are you honouring your Wild Woman

“The doors to the world of the wild Self are few but precious. If you have a deep scar, that is a door, if you have an old, old story, that is a door. If you love the sky and the water so much you almost cannot bear it, that is a door. If you yearn for a deeper life, a full life, a sane life, that is a door.” – Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Women Who Run With the Wolves: Myths and Stories of the Wild Woman Archetype.

Women Who Run With The Wolves was such an amazing book, although this young lady was painted after I read Catherine Wilson's When Women Were Warriors. A different genre but equally enjoyable.

Haunting and stunning at the same time. It moved me. Beautiful job!

Thank you Keri. The Wild Woman is one of my favorites, I'm normally quite a "formal" painter so this one was a bit of a surprise when I let myself go

Beautiful haunting and very expressive. Like she is holding back some serious secrets.
