"Strength in Tenderness"

"Strength in Tenderness"
Charcoal on Paper

This evocative charcoal drawing captures a quiet yet powerful moment—a woman gently embracing her pet dragon. The tender connection between the two challenges the notion that gentleness and meekness are signs of weakness. The dragon, often seen as a symbol of power and ferocity, leans into the woman’s arms with trust, revealing the strength that lies in her compassion. Through delicate strokes and rich textures, the artwork speaks to the resilience found in kindness, and the unyielding force that emanates from a heart that leads with empathy.

“Never mistake gentleness for weakness; there is power in compassion.”
