Marian is wearing a size Medium

But because she can

Fear is often created in our own mind

this woman is a testament to our graceful attempt at the ever-elusive achievement of balance

It serves as a reminder that while we may seek guidance from others

and fully realized

It is composed of hand-painted and hand-stitched canvas scraps

Transformation is rarely graceful

and earned in silence
