‘Learning To Fly I’ (2022), 80cm x 80cm acrylic, graphite, oil pastel, matte varnish on wood panels.This painting tells the story of contentment. I never understood how simple life could be until relatively recently, as I have learned to combine sober living with a generous helping of artistic expression. I didn’t even realise how much tension and struggle I invited into my environment just by stifling my creativity. The release has been like taking flight, and now I soar on the winds of contentment. Come fly with me
