----------
This work is a contest entry for 's Native American contest!
--------------------------------------------------------------
This painting was inspired by the following Native American folklore;
An elder cherokee was teaching his grandchildren about life. He said to them, "A fight is going on inside me. It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves.
One wolf represents fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.
The other stands for joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.
This same fight is going on inside you, and inside every other person, too."
The children thought about it for a minute and then one child asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?"
The old cherokee simply replied,"The one you feed."

You know because I told you before that I fell in love with your
work. I hope you read the comments you got from the judges on the
WinnerΒ΄s blog!
We really only had prizes for the three first places, but I spontaneously
decided to give you and Felix 50 points each as an extra prize from me.
Very touching works, yours and his. Excellent quality. It was my pleasure
to do that!
I am very happy that you participated and I hope that you will find
more contests you like in our group!!
