Preparing for flight

The #cantfly series of watercolour paintings was inspired after a long admission in hospital, and the challenges faced after discharge.  Each depicts a challenge to re-engage with society, and the fears within that – although you have wings – you will forever be tethered to the ground.

“Preparing for flight” is another inspirational piece, with the character facing her wings. To me, this piece indicates a desire to fly free, to release the bonds holding her to the ground.
