Additional Information: "Surely I Will Fly” is a vibrant and hopeful expression of the human spirit's innate desire for freedom and transcendence. This painting represents the moment when we spread our wings, both literally and metaphorically, and embrace the possibility of soaring to new heights. With bold brushstrokes and radiant colours, I aim to capture the sense of liberation and empowerment that comes with embracing our dreams and aspirations. The title 'Surely I Will Fly' is a declaration of faith in oneself, a testament to the power of imagination and determination. This piece invites the viewer to tap into their sense of possibility and potential, to envision a future where anything is possible, and to trust in their ability to rise above challenges and soar to new heights.
