"How would you know if you've never tried it before?" This piece of artwork captures the moment when I chickened out to abseil down the cliff. This was the face my instructor displayed - with mouth pursed, eyes not disapproving, yet they still managed to present me with the challenge of exceeding my own expectations. Eventually I pushed away my worries and did the abseil, which I'm extremely proud of even until this day. Sometimes it takes only a single look to get you fired up and going, and that was exactly what I wanted to recreate as a reminder for myself to be brave.
