Lone Wolf | Self Portraits

“The doors to the world of the wild Self are few but precious. If you have a deep scar, that is a door, if you have an old, old story, that is a door. If you love the sky and the water so much you almost cannot bear it, that is a door. If you yearn for a deeper life, a full life, a sane life, that is a door.” 
― Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Women Who Run With the Wolves

“Go out in the woods, go out. If you don't go out in the woods nothing will ever happen and your life will never begin.” 
―Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Women Who Run With the Wolves

“Though her soul requires seeing, the culture around her requires sightlessness. Though her soul wishes to speak its truth, she is pressured to be silent.” 

―Clarissa Pinkola Estes, Women Who Run With the Wolves

Self Portrait Series

“The psyches and souls of women also have their own cycles and seasons of doing and solitude, running and staying, being involved and being removed, questing and resting, creating and incubating, being of the world and returning to the soul-place.” 
― Clarissa Pinkola Estés

 

“I hope you will go out and let stories, that is life, happen to you, and that you will work with these stories... water them with your blood and tears and your laughter till they bloom, till you yourself burst into bloom.” 
― Clarissa Pinkola Estés

Life {Unscripted} Vol. 13

We are celebrating our 1 year anniversary this month at L{U}. 

This group of photographers have become so much more than that to me. 

I'm truly lucky to be a part of such an amazing group of

artists, and friends. 

This month we are taking a favorite {Unscripted} image from each month over the last year. 

Please, if you have the time take a moment to continue through our circle. 

Ann Marie is up next from One 33 Photography. You'll really enjoy her favorite 12!
