Shaylene Picard Artist Statement: This design was created as an inspiration
from one of my own dreams. As I woke, I remembered a scene and created it visually
with vibrant colours which resonated with me from this dream. The black panther
symbolizes strength, courage, grace, feminine power and is often named 'the ghost of
the forest', blending in the night. I feel very connected to the black panther as I have
often been told that my own personality strongly correlated to the characteristics of this
powerful animal. My intention with creating the panther in the daylight was to bring
forward the strength and power of the animal, no longer needing to hide. (Source:
