Photos above serve as example – frame not included.
A calm, clear, wide-eyed figure in touch with the unknown emerges against a field of stars and orbital turnings. Her hair flows in electric yellow-green strands. A cat, her familiar and protector, sits at her feet.
DESCRIPTION
The figure appears alone, yet the title indicates otherwise – an unseen companion, implied rather than depicted. Nothing unusual about that. There’s always more to something than meets the eye: deeper, hidden layers of both reality and psyche. A small piece of information activates the narrative. It pulls between what is seen and what is not, asking us to go by feeling, by intuition.
Local Healer – with Cat is a portrait of a serene, clear-eyed young woman with her head in exactly the right place – the stars. Mature beyond her years, her life is one of service to her people. Empowered by where she comes from, by herbal lore and knowledge passed through generations of blood kin, she is appreciated and respected by all who know her. She speaks with the stars, after all. The cat knows this.
Here, absence becomes presence.
Within BwahT mythology, this work belongs to the Occluded Familiar – forces that guide, influence, and accompany without visual confirmation.
Bold, saturated color counters the mystical undertow. It sits between pop icon and archetypal myth, exactly where it belongs.
Local Healer – with Cat is taken from a drawing done with ink and marker on paper.
