Description

This piece was originally done as a 50th birthday present for a modern day wonder woman. She is one of those amazing women of our times, being a full time mum, main wage earner, nurturer and organiser of her family. She works crazy hours, always striving to do her best for all she loves. This is my homage and healing art for her and all women who are sole providers and nurturers to all they love. To the sisters, mothers and grandmothers who spend their lives taking care of others, often sacrificing their own health and well being in the process. This image was created to remind us that it’s ok to crash and burn, we will rise again from the foundations of love we have spent our lives nurturing. It is an image of rebirth and hope.
Through the ties that bond  find comfort and healing.
From the power of three
Bind magic and meaning.
