Spirit Animal Series- Spellbound
2013
Pen and ink
Spellbound is part of my Spirit Animal series, inspired by the fearless, athletic women I met while traveling through the American West. These women embraced the outdoors fully, climbing cliffs, traversing forests, and living on the edge of the unknown—an energy rarely seen in my metropolitan hometown of Washington, DC. In the illustration, a magical ritual and fire summon the subject’s spirit animal, revealing a powerful wolf as her true form. The piece celebrates courage, transformation, and the wild strength that lies within.
