Violet Instinct

Medium: Acrylic on paper Dimensions: A3 Year: 2025

“She doesn’t roar, she doesn’t rage. She simply listens — to the wild within.”

The Inner Howl is a reflection of the untamed feminine spirit — quiet on the outside, yet fiercely alive within. This acrylic portrait, done entirely in shades of violet and crimson, captures the essence of a woman deeply rooted in her own inner world. Her eyes are closed, but her soul is wide awake.

Inspired by the timeless words of Clarissa Pinkola Estés and her book Women Who Run with the Wolves, this piece honors the strength, intuition, and creativity that lives in every woman — the silent howl of the inner wolf.
