Wonderful concept and execution and I have to add that you have a fine sense of conveying light and space in your artworks!

The legend of Dolasilla, certainly, makes it evidential that there were more bellicose women in ancient times on the Italian peninsula than just Virgil´s female warrior Camilla, who, likewise, had a tragic destiny in the "Aeneid"...
