Here is @foreignspell's rendition of the book cover from Sacred Wilderness by Susan Power. Swipe to see the original artwork by Andrea Carlson. Here's one of the standout quotes: “We are here to learn, to teach, and sometimes the only way is through suffering.” One of the last books read for @the_page_sisters book club, Sacred Wilderness is a clan mother's story. Generations of women with interwoven tales come together in this soul-stirring fable. From various religious backgrounds and generations, these women all have something in common, something we all share. The cover art for this book has always struck me. A giant bear, strong and fierce, gently envelopes a woman with a shall. There is so much power in the paint, not just from the bear, but from the woman's stoic expression. I was so excited to see @foreignspell's take on one of my favorite pieces of art and I couldn’t be more thrilled with how it came out.
