About this design
Words of Wisdom
Created by carissacatalina on Mar 29, 2012
This is an expressive line ink drawing made of patterns and words forming a figure of a pregnant mother and a child. I wanted to incorporate 7 words of wisdom to empower women all over the world to make a difference: life, love, hope, choice, change, bodacious, and pride.

Amazing design and execution. Love the illustration and embedded message. Highly reminiscent of Mehndi.
You probably already know, but it bears mentioning for others' benefit, that Mehndi is traditionally used on the bridal party, with the bride's name concealed in the designs on her hands and feet. The groom must discover the hidden name before the consummation -- which is a nice buffer for getting to know each other especially with arranged marriages.
You had me at "Pretty," and then I realized you had incorporated the words. Wow. 5 by 5

Wow, this design is AWESOME!!! The art alone is beautiful, but as you look closer you can see hidden words which makes it amazing. I like how you added a child touching the stomic/world of the mother, I feel it adds even more meaning then if she was alone.
Great job!!!
Very different!!!
