Corpulent Rubenesque Queens
I found a site on Etsy this morning that intrigues me
an artist named Laurie Terrier creates women statues
These are not skinny waisted women
or Barbie doll shaped women
These are corpulent, Rubenesque women
Real women like this are often trying to hide
Wearing dull blacks, tans, grays, and navy blues
Not these CR women. They are flashy.
Painted in a variety of bright colors.
With black and white checks to round them out.
I found this site today, and plan to return.
Confident women are portrayed by this artist.
The kind of women I surround myself with.
My kind of women.
Women who own their shape.
Apologizing for nothing.
Strutting their stuff the best they can – queens.
