Commission for someone off FA.
They requested some sort of werewolf, dominant color green.
While Werewovles do not exist in the Aboriginal cultures, the concept of transformation, and transforming into animals is a concept you see regularly in the Oral Traditions. Here, we see a human, transforming into a Wolf... the legs beginning to deform out of shape, and the last remenance of the human body- the hand- is evident. The Hand is a symbol of Healing in Aboriginal cultures- Healing, Medicine, and Remembrance.
I wanted the hand evident to indicate that the transformation is a Healing one, and one of remembrance- back to a time we were inseparable form nature and from The Bush.

Thank you so much! It is very important that we give a deeper thought into what we draw in this culture, as we have to justify every action we take, and usually it's either to our mentor, or our Elder/s. We simply cannot “draw for the sake of drawing”. It does breed a certain mindset of care and concern that applies to all other aspects of life... so my other art and non-art related work also benefit from it!
