Waiting To Fly

About This Work

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.

“Waiting to fly” has the feel of movement in its mauve wings, almost holding your breath to see if she will take off.
