Collection: The end of an amazing long life journey
The main feature is the goat that has a torch in its mouth that is meant to symbolise hope and lighting up the world. It is dressed in a Polish stroje, which is Polish traditional dress, and has five poppies on its back. Five is a significant number in Chinese numerology, because it means enough. Looking over the goat is saint Michael, meaning protection. To the top left of the painting there is Uluru, which is a red rock in the middle of Australia, which I always believe is the heart of Australia. In the bottom left of the painting there is a wattle plant, which is the national flower of Australia, which means it belongs to Australia. The path is going around Uluru, this means a long journey gone through in life as well as the many achievements along the way. It leads towards the indigenous Australian sign for community or people being around the campfire. Meaning that you have picked up many allies throughout your long journey in life.
