I’ve always adored painting  the beauty and anatomy of the female form, but I’ve struggled with drawing human faces completely from scratch. Instead of letting that limitation stop me, I turned it into part of the artwork. The woman became something beyond human, taking on the head of a tiger and everything that comes with it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTo me, the tiger represents the instinctive, powerful, sensual energy that a woman can carry within her.
