This is me at school over-looking the beautiful weather.
I love the wistful poise of the girl, and the suggestion of something big in the depths she’s gazing over. The artist’s use of colour, and depiction of shadow and horizon is compelling. There’s a wonderful feeling of peace and contemplation that accompanies this piece.
