Please see here the intended text to go with each image - this is the first draft and so it is just an idea of the story I would like to tell
Stages of Woman
Child
Pure child, full of dreams
Pretty dolls and decent things
Watching Mother cook and clean
Mother talking about how we should be seen
Teenager
Awkward times, full of discontent
The girl hides away as her mind and body disconnect
Life beckons and so she steps away
Broken dreams, harsh times, and disarray
Woman
At last, the girl becomes a woman
Strong, vibrant, sensual, and uncommon
Gives everything she has, marches forward
Determined, clever, ambitious, and ordered
Pregnant
Met a man, everything changed
Domestic bliss, she feels shortchanged
The time has come for her to bear
Fruit of her womb, bright and fair
Change
Years of work, child-rearing and domestic chores
Nothing gained, and no reward
Body strained, time marches on
The change is here and a woman’s life foregone
Revitalised
At last, the woman is free
Her body returned to thee
Strong and hopeful, no man needed
She now steps out and feels completed
Age
Finally, the last hours, show their face
She has lived, wishes she could have been in the fast race
But the woman has to take the slow path
Now she withers on the vine
Contemplating the wonder of divine design
