Original artwork description:

When we are children, our sense of wonder and excitement for seemingly mundane and normal things is what propels creativity and deep insight in adulthood.

This painting shows the contrast between those who explore and those who choose, either through fear or external factors, not to step out of their comfort zone, and the impact it potentially has.

The attic has always been a haven of exploration and wonder. The fact that it can be dark and scary, and kids still enter, brave their fears, and experience it, shows strength and a drive to keep looking, to keep moving forward no matter what.

Discover only comes when one opens their eyes.
