just realised i never wrote about one of my latest artworks, called "Seduction", so here is my dark fairytale for you :)
Seduction utters just an instance, a tiny small and frail fragment of a dark fairytale of the enchanting, mystifying (and soon to be) relationship between a forest type of a girl and an untamed type of a bear.
..........."
wo wondering creatures of the dark
forest, both always prying behind the heavy tree shadows, inquisitive
and intrigued of all strangers that dare to reach this deep into
their woods, suddenly cross paths and then they glimpse each other
for the first time........
The ticking of the time stops....the forest quiets and listens....the leaves rustle to the air a secret.......”.those two.... are destined.....to .......”....
They look each other intensely, never daring to move their eyes away or let the feelings of timidness and fearlessness to truly show.......and although they seem nailed to the ground, as if they claimed their own *for at least the next few centuries* this particular piece of earth (one tiny and one huge respectively) ................ in reality, they both fight their biggest battle...!
Folks around these places say that this is not an unnatural or atypical happening in the misty dark forest...it happens every once in a while but the outcome is messy and unclean and never gives birth to a nice fairytale..! only to warnings they say, warnings and curfews around this misty woodland.
...but there is a tale, told only by a hermit old lady that lives away from the village and dangerously deep into the forest.... that no one else whispers to a sleepy child at nights.
She claims, that every a hundred years a girl comes that her spirit is stronger than a bear's and if they ever meet...... her strong will, her untamed spirit, her hair flowing one with the forest wind, her provocative scent travelling in the air, will seduce and tame even the hugest wildest bear that emerges from the misty forest......She says to know of the secret the leaves whispered to the air....
..”...those two.... are destined.....to ...be one......”
“....she's a crazy old hag!!!! “ Village folks say......but all admit that no bear ever hurts her....
..........."
Bear hugs :)

I am sure to be the girl, yes the 100 year girl. To live deep in the forest where no human dare to tread...I go quietly stepping among the moss. A mouse scurries across my shoe, he stops to rest upon the other shoe. We have met before and always he falls under my gaze. He is soft and sweet so I shall let him go to meet upon the trail another day. For today I smell a bear and I am sure the bear smells me.
