Not quite sure I understand your title or presentation on this one. Can you explain it please.

Patricia,
This image says something to me about constraint of wildness. By convention, by the image frame. Of one's own nature through self control. You can think of the black area in this image as the bear. Or not. As you might have recognized I take some delight in fashioning uses for negative space. The shape largely proscribed by the upward curving flower petal could be seen as an eye. The orange shape at the center, is that a mouth or some other body part? Is that a claw or a tooth extending downward from it? Is the shape at the lower right a hand or a foot, or is that whole form the dancing bear? And perhaps the bear has a bell attached, the flower (a beardtongue), that it shakes. And consider a "bear" homophone. I can see the lower part as dancing "bare" (naked) under the full Moon.
