Everything a child needs: Roots & Wings

There was a time when I was in a really bad place, when I couldn't make sense of my life any more. Back then (about 11 years ago) I read this for the first time, that everything parents need to give their child are roots and wings. This touched me so deeply that I cried. I felt like I had neither.
So since then I have come to realize this:

Everyone is the artisan of his own fortune.

So I just had to make my own roots and wings!
It's still a process but I feel much better than back then and I have changed my attitude and therefore my life.
Seeing that I can now intuitively paint this little scene with everything in it that I always hoped for - to feel secure, but to also be able to do anything I want - I believe I've come a long way :-)

About the painting:
It's again seamless at the top and bottom and will be available on redbubble soon.

Here are the steps for this painting:
