For Womans Day I will present one of my illustrations. Hand done.
My questions – what do people want of a woman?
I am really tired of stereo types or used cliches!.
A woman is herself and we are all different we adorn ourselves with who we see ourselves to be.
Every woman is a Princess in her own right, no matter what race, size, age or what is in the bank.
Each woman is special and it doesn’t only belong to those with the label of feminist or barbie doll or model..or lady muck! Maybe one of the “it!” crowd.
It really does not matter, we are who we are, basically ourselves.
Most of us grow to be like mothers, sisters, daughters, wives, chief cook and bottle washer, secretary, girl friday, lover, artists, gardener, nurse, housekeeper, chauffeur, counsellors or what ever you need to be. Most are Jack of all trades depending on what is necessary.
Incidentally New Zealand was the 1st country to give women the vote but it was not until 40 years later that a woman could enter parliament. The reason why women really worked at getting to vote, in New Zealand, is because a lot of men spend their wages on gambling and drinking and they did not support their wives and families. However, there has always been militant personalities in both sexes.
Everyone in theory should have rights and in my opinion, no one should demand their rights at the expense of others. I know it doesn’t always work that way.
I totally agree with you. The situation is similar in our country as well. I doubt that this will ever change.
Thanks so much Vidocka, glad to read your comments
Very nice post. Excellent illustration. I love it!!!
Thanks so much Bradley
Thanks so much Tasartcraft
A beautiful illustration, Pamela.
I am very confident that everyone, every individual, has their respective roles and meanings.
Thanks so much Albert, you are right
Pleasure is mine, Pamela.
Every woman deserves to be loved and respected. This is a very beautiful colorful picture.
Thanks so much Elenka yes, I agree
What a great drawing Pam. We are all celebrated the same in my eyes.
Thanks so much Carol glad you agree.
There is no greater answer than we are equal. Together we are powerful. But sperate we are powerful as well.
Partners always!
Thanks Doc, that is my belief too. We are always going to be different from others but then that too is a gift.
So true, I know that my partner is such a huge component of who I am now, that I wouldn’t be me without her!
Your artwork is awesome! I agree with you. We are all ourselves, it doesn’t matter what others want of us, we just live our own lives, be it a man or woman. I didn’t know New Zealand was the first to let women go for voting. Thanks for sharing that.
Thanks so much Kaka, New Zealand would have been more progressive to allow women to go into parliament when they began voting but that would have been too much for that time.
Anyway, I do not know why it’s so … I personally respect all women … every one is beautiful in nature, whether it is an outer or inner beauty and I really do not know what a man would be if there were no women
This artwork should be showcased Pamela, it should make women everywhere take a look at themselves, and smile because they love themselves. Awesome
Yes, it certainly does look like they love themselves. Thanks La Jenna
Thanks Lado, I suppose some women are really into it. Some people need to learn that respect is mutual and whether one is man or woman is immaterial.
However, it is a big deal for some women and that is why I posted it.
In hindsight though, it would be awful not to have equal rights.
I totally agree with you dear friend
