INSPIRATION

My inspiration for this piece is the woman I’m becoming in life. I feel like I’m the true story of a butterfly. The first stage is the egg, the second is a caterpillar which is called the larval stage. The third stage is called a pupa and being in prison I felt I was a pupa for years, until I stopped feeling sorry and told myself I’m a survivor. I’m leaving the pupal stage and breaking free. I’m becoming and Metamorphosis of a woman and now I’m starting to fly!
