Part of the Renaissance series

Acrylic and oils
This painting is another painting in my menopause series.
Here, the black jaguar or panther is symbolic of the menopausal woman who is stalking the viewer relentlessly through the grass. She is sending up the butterflies of change as she pushes her way to the foreground.
The panther symbolises rebirth. In the world of dreams the panther travels to the underworld, faces our fears, and brings back the wisdom to discover our hidden inner strength, and encourages us to embrace change without fear. In tarot it represents endings, beginnings and rebirth.
This painting has a feminine quality shown in the soft, pinks and the gentle, brushing of the grasses against the powerful body of the panther, which is painted in palette, knife to accentuate the power and courage of the big cat.
This painting is on canvas and it’s painted in acrylic and oils .
