Courage- Ltd Ed Canvas by Maggie O Hara -Limited edition of 12

‘I have the courage to believe in my visions as I continue to take steps towards my dream’

Creating digital art is my way of escaping reality and the stresses of life and COVID, by entering that elusive state where I find myself totally absorbed in what I’m doing. I create intuitively and music guides my thoughts. The essence of this new series is the beginning of a new journey after venturing long a long winding dark road and emerging and witnessing a transformation. Being able to be more resilient and embrace the freedom we are so fortunate to have, living in North Queensland.

The series was inspired by North Queensland where the soil is rich, and the colours are vibrant, where we are reminded that beauty is not about perfection, but the beautifully imperfect, and our power lies within embracing all that we are, unconditionally. For the season’s change, the leaves shed, the old makes way for the new and amongst it all spring blossoms. The ground is nurtured, life retreats to rest and regenerate, it braves the storms and embraces the healing power of the sun, so the cycle continues.

The butteries signify profound transformation, the flowers that come back to blossom each year represent resilience, and the birds symbolise freedom, which pre-COVID we took for granted.
