Artists Statement
“Veiled with the magic and mystery of nature, and embraced by the spiritual realm, woman stands ready to step into her divine feminine. Now is her time. Is she ready to lift the veil?”
Reclaiming our self worth is immanent to “lifting the veil”. Outwardly our intrinsic value (wealth, riches, fortune) will change as we change and internally embrace our true value. Realizing our inherent value carries the impetus to reclaim and redefine how the world sees women. This change is an essential part of empowering ourselves with the deep knowing of who we are.
