Shine Bright: Navigating the Storms of Life with Authenticity

This image is in a watercolour style. There is a green landscape at the bottom where a human figure is stood with their back to us with both their arms raised upwards. Tiny flecks of a golden yellow seem to be radiating out from this individual into the sky. The sky is oranges and reds blending into purple with some clouds. A rainbow is forming and goes out of sight at the top of the image. The text reads: "Be thou the rainbow to the storms of life, The evening beam that smiles the clouds away, And tints tomorrow with prophetic ray!"(Lord Byron)

Unveiling Life’s Roles Through Coaching Perspectives

This image is done in a dreamlike style. A lone figue is stood in shadow at the centre of the bottom of the image. Apparently they are stood in either a large wide aisle or down a wide catwalk leading to steps up to a raised stage area. It is not apparent what roles this individual is playing. On either side of the aisle are rows of audience, all sat, who are also in shadow. Impressive looking columns are oneither side of this raised stage. 7 theratical spotlights are shining down onto different areas of the stage with light feflecting off the surface causing a glow.
