Hi FJRCP

a great topic. How self image be it ones mental emotional abilities, or ones outward physical appearance . How a few or many individuals can rob a person of the life and love they deserve.

I draw some and always had a leaning to drawing faces. I started with basic drawing classes much of was figure drawing. I learned to appreciate the human form not for its ideal beauty but for the uniqueness we are. Each line ,shape color is a god given gift that is our special finger print and always beautiful. And our soul is also an imprint and will be unlike any other.

Those who damage us rob us from many opportunities in life and instill more fear rather than kindness love and admiration.

Thank you for this topic . I have still many fears . And with each deep hurt I get set way back.

Take care

Patricia
