Heart Strength

Made this small piece recently when I felt I needed a fierce heart; but it ended up looking too gentle. Don't seem to have fierce in me!

  1. Looks good to me - fierce or not! I'm not fierce either - until a loved one is threatened and then watch the mother bear come out in me. I'd be willing to bet you're the same!

  3. Your heart looks to be on fire - maybe a heart aflame is fierce...

  6. I agree - strong, but not fierce. Fiercely protective is not quite the same as fierce, but I think somehow more powerful.

  7. I'm liking the ideas that gentleness trumps fierceness from Suzanne. And also Karen's suggestion that fiercely protective is more powerful that plain old fierce.

  8. Your heart is lovely! No, I can't see you as fierce! You're more the type to gently nudge someone in the right direction.
