Flight

'The classic poems “Delight is of flight’ and “‘Hope’, The Thing with Feathers”, both by Emily Dickinson, and “The Caged Bird” by Maya Angelou have inspired the following four paintings in this brochure. ‘Flight reminds us of the ‘ratio’ of life as does the Venerable Bede in ‘The Ecclesiastical History of the English People’ AD 731, likened the span of human life to that of ‘the swift flight of a sparrow through mead- hall in winter’. I see the changing shades to the seagull being alike to the lights and shades of life.'
