RE: Grappling With Nature Series No. 5 (Complex Relationship Stemming From Forklore) | Mixed Media Project

I was hoping to capture strong emotions like fear in my design. My own fears of forests when young made a lasting impression. Fantasy and fiction didn't help. Reading the fairytale books such as Little Red Riding Hood with the wolf laying in disguise was haunting. The lesson not to trust strangers and stay out of the woods affected me. I'm happy to report that I overcame those fears as an adult.

Thanks so much for your visit and insight. I appreciate it and your engagement. Take care.

One of my biggest fears was spiders, but I've overcome that too, although it wasn't easy. We were both taught not to talk to strangers; you have to be cautious. Thank you to you!🤗

Me and spiders aren't BFs either. But I've learned how to at least look at them through art without the creepy crawly feeling.

Exactly, me too!!😃
