XTREME WOMEN - Illustration Series

Her name is Cactus.
A cactus is not the best plant that one would like to be, but honesty is liberating. Many would rather be a rose or a sunflower, but people are not as beautiful as they think. Sometimes a beautiful outside may hide a poisonous inside. With cactuses, she found herself, and it was a piece of herself that she wanted to share with everyone. 

It is the plant of patience and solitude, love and madness, ugliness and beauty, toughness and gentleness. 
That’s why her name is Cactus.
Her name is Polar.
Peace and serenity is her motto, but if she had to face her enemies she will become savage. She adapts at her weakest points. Not lonely as most people think, but she enjoys time with herself. She knows when to be kind, and when to become a monster. Polar, sees her soul in the Arctic Beasts. Her skin is thick as their fur, and could go through extreme conditions. Her loved ones are her only weakness, and everyone around her sees her as an idol for envy. Polar Bears are the animals of extremes: Extreme love, extreme hate, extreme kindness, extreme talent, and extreme pride.
