This painting was inspired by the message from 'Jonathan Livingston Seagull': "Don't believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding, find out what you already know, and you'll see the way to fly." I aimed to view the Whitsundays differently with the theme "Above and Below." Capturing the many layers of this pristine place in one painting, I challenged the limitations of the medium and rules. I sought to let my imagination fly and create something new and exciting. Reflecting on my skills and understanding of painting, I pushed myself to gain the freedom needed to create layers of beauty and intrigue, ultimately feeling as though I could now fly.
