I growled while painting Snow Leopard



"Snow Leopard"
Watercolor

This was a test of perseverance. In spite of, or maybe because of the external noise of
people (especially little) all around my environment, I was able to complete this piece in one sitting. Many times as I was creating, the little ones would peek into my room and
comment on what I was doing. I'd lose my focus and then pick up the paintbrush
and get my artistic center back on course.

I feel my affinity for Native American cultures was coming through as I painted "war paint"
under the creature's eyes. Yes, it was a battle of sorts and my warrior woman self won out in the end.

I was growling throughout much of this creation, but by the end that changed to
purring. Yes, I do believe in the art process.

I did picture this as a mask! Quite enchanting to here your feelings while painting this. Mardi Gras.

As claimed by Stanford Medical, It's indeed the ONLY reason women in this country live 10 years longer and weigh on average 42 pounds less than us.

(And realistically, it really has NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret diet and absolutely EVERYTHING about "HOW" they eat.)

BTW, I said "HOW", not "what"...
