Original Art

a girl like me... “Don't mistake my demureness for weakness... I am fearless, and I roar.”

So... don't you know a little lady who sometimes can be a bit of a contradiction? On the one hand, she seems a tad shy; on the other hand, she sometimes comes out ROARING. Well, this print is for all the girls, ladies, females, and women who are often judged too quickly. People may think these lovelies are weak or frail, when in fact, they can pack a FIERCE punch both physically and emotionally... give her a try, all you judgers!

• The painting is delivered to your door with a custom story describing the inspiring woman and the date she set the world ablaze.

“princess? no... try astrophysicist.”

So... this is for the girl who has little time for all-things-princess. She is all about using her intelligence to rule the world... yes, I said, RULE THE WORLD. Specifically, she's a bit obsessed with stars, planets, dark matter, science, and exoplanets. Her brain tends to run a bit faster than everyone else's... so fast, that even watching TV is a bore to her because TV is too slow. So, she watches the stars and the dark spaces between the stars and dreams of her big, adventurous life discovering new stars, planets and maybe even aliens somewhere in space. Watch out world, because here she comes!

“I can and I will... just watch me.”

So... this girl is Determined... with a capital D. She has her walkin' shoes on, her highly intelligent brain tuned to overload, and she is on her way to playing BIG. She is a bit scared (although no one would ever notice), but she is using that "scared" to fuel her forward. She knows deep within, that she's got this... no matter what... so, I highly recommend staying out of her way. Go BIG or go home, right?!

a girl like me... “She knew he was trouble when he walked in… so she walked the other way. Smart girl.”

So... I love this girl! She's the girl who can immediately recognize trouble. (I soooo cannot recognize trouble this quickly!) This girl has her wits, and she's smart enough to know... to WALK THE OTHER WAY, GIRL! This girl has ZERO time to fiddle with toxic people, disrespectful people, or rude people. Life's too short! She washes these toxins right out of her hair... and just walks on the other way to continue her magical journey through life.

a girl like me... “She had a wild & wandering gypsy soul that couldn’t be tamed.”

So... this is for the girl who has a WILD and WANDERING spirit. She flutters through life with such essence and calm... and she infuses that essence with everyone she encounters. Do you know a girl like this? Someone who makes you feel ALIVE and UNTETHERED. You should never try to cage this gypsy girl... she's not a girl that can be boxed in or confined by other people's rules. She can never be tamed... she's looking for someone who can embrace her wildness, and let her remain free.

a girl like me... “People will stare… make it worth their while.”

So... do you know a girl who has a look that just stops people in their tracks?! I mean, this girl has such a UNIQUE-GIRL-YOU-GOT-IT-GOIN'-ON-OO-LA-LA style! There's just no one else that can touch this girl's look and vibe. And, she wears it well... every single day. She wants the world to know who she is... she's not afraid to speak her mind LOUDLY and CONFIDENTLY, and she's not afraid to wear her style... it's her way of celebrating her outer (and inner) quirks. She screams loudly... "Wear Your Bliss, Wear Your Joy, Wear Who-You-Are!"

“she found her peace...”

So... this is for the girl who is searching for the PEACE within her soul... searching for a way to nourish and pay attention to the BRIGHTNESS she carries within her. She has such a lovely inner spirit, but she often gets overwhelmed with the crazy-information-overloaded-world that we live in. She longs to find her inner peace at times when she just needs a minute... a minute to breathe... a minute to reflect... a minute to calm and reconnect with her soul. This painting will inspire and remind this girl to nourish her inner spirit... and RELISH in the calmness of her peace.

“Today I plan to crush misogyny, destroy sexism… & eat a bit of chocolate.”

So... this is for the lovely girl who uses her courageous inner spirit to fight inequality in the world. She knows what it feels like to be thought of as "lesser than" simply because she is a girl. She goes out into the world every day and brings her "A-Girl-Game" and sets the world ablaze... but every so often, she encounters sexism, and misogyny.. and she can't for the life of her understand WHY THESE THINGS STILL EXIST?! So, she fights back... STRONGLY, COURAGEOUSLY, and RESPECTFULLY. Then, once she wins a battle or two, she relishes in the delights of a bit of chocolate... Yes... good, sweet chocolate. Sometimes, that's all a girl needs.

“I didn’t wake up today to be mediocre.”

So... this is for the girl who is EXCELLENT, AWESOME, FANTASTICAL... anything BUT mediocre. This girl wakes up every morning and hits the ground running! She knows she has inner-girl-power-excellence, and she uses it to her advantage every single day. There's ZERO room in this girl's life for just being "ok" or "average"... oh no... these words are not in this girl's vocabulary. If you want to be part of her space, you better bring your A-Girl-Game... 'cause that's what she brings to the world every single day.

“My Mother worked too hard for me not to be great.”

So... don't you know a girl whose mom is uber incredible, and took the time, effort, and love to teach her daughter to be GREAT?! I know soooo many moms who worked endlessly to raise their daughters to be strong, independent, smart, kind, empathetic... and just GREAT. These are the daughters and young ladies who walk through life KNOWING they have a fierce mom watching their back... at all times... and they know they have what it takes to be GREAT... just like their moms taught them to be. Your girl will be empowered and inspired to be GREAT every single day when she wakes up to this original painting hanging on her wall.

a girl like me... “Don’t study me… you won’t graduate.”

So... this girl is smart... not just "normal" smart, but amazingly-in-your-face smart. Oh, and she's COMPLEX; not in a bad way, but in a perfectly excellent way. She's engaging, captivating, and has strong opinions; she voices those strong opinions LOUDLY, OFTEN, and always RESPECTFULLY (well, most of the time she's respectful). She's not looking for someone to change her or try and mold her into someone else. She's not looking for someone to "study" her; she's not a project! She's a miraculous young lady who is walking through this world boldly and resolutely... if she finds someone on her way who can revel in and embrace her layers, then great! If not, so be it. (BTW - Even if you did try and "study" her, you would never unravel all the layers.)

a girl like me... golden girl.

So... this is for the girl who has an inner spirit and soul that is simply iridescent and GOLDEN. She's magical in soooo many ways. Her eyes betray her inner spirit; you can see into her eyes the love and belief she has in the magic of the world... the butterflies represent freedom and strength, along with fragility. The world is a wondrous place for this golden girl. Do you know a girl who is captivated by all the wonders of the world?! A girl who shares her inner-golden-peace with everyone she encounters in this big and magical world? This painting is for her... and all the golden girls in the world.

“First, God created man; then she had a better idea.”

So... don't you know a girl who is fierce, independent, and strong? The kind of girl who walks through life just KNOWING that she is gonna blaze a trail, unlike any other because SHE (ummm, I mean God) created her to be FANTASTICAL in every way. She knows how powerful her inner girl-spirit is... and she plans to use it to dream BIG, and make those BIG dreams happen. "Girl power" is ever-present in this young lady... as it should be.

a girl like me... “If ballet were easier, it would be called football.”

So... this girl is a ballerina, or maybe an aspiring ballerina. She knows all too well the difficulty level of performing pirouettes, fouettes, grand adages, or grand jetes. (spelling these terms is not so easy either!) The difficulty level of these moves is much higher than... let's say... well, how about catching a leather ball and running down a nicely manicured grassy field with a custom helmet, a team of large people blocking others from tackling you, all while garbed in safety pads galore! Well, YES... I'd say the ballet moves have a difficulty level OFF THE CHARTS compared with football!

Your girl, sister, daughter or friend will celebrate her fierceness and strength every single day when she looks at this original painting hanging on her wall... and she will KNOW, for sure, that football players could NEVER do ballet.

“princess? no… just call me Doctor.”

So... do you know a girl or do you have a daughter or do have a friend who worked uber hard and can now call herself "Doctor?" The kind of girl with BIG dreams that not only thinks about them but MAKES THEM HAPPEN! She's fierce, smart, determined and walks confidently through life... and even when she feels a bit insecure, she never lets others see it... because, she knows deep within, that she's got this.
