True beauty is not necessarily something seen, it is more than that. When a truly beautiful woman is around, it is something you can feel inside you. Its an energy that emanates from within her. It is the light of her soul shining outward. A truly beautiful woman is like a masterpiece, carefully constructed with precision and fueled by passion and focus. This book is a collection of paintings and poems that represent the inner characteristics that truly beautiful women possess, while portraying the beauty of physical attributes of the female body. Courage, confidence, empathy, self-awareness, resiliency, and grace are a few of the characteristics represented and discussed in the book. The art and poetry contained in this book are meant to inspire, empower, and create a new way to look at female beauty while questioning the superficiality that society has placed on physical beauty alone. The poetry is relatable to many women's lives, creating a stirring of emotions to well up inside for the reader. You will find yourself laughing, crying, questioning, and reflecting on these characteristics in your own life. The author has included discussion questions that can be used for book clubs or for self-reflection at the back of the book. Eight of the paintings featured in the book have been turned into 'Color Your Own' pages, allowing the reader to express his/her own creativity and beauty.
