'Antarctic Mountains' oil painting by Janice Lyall
When I stood back from the painting, the Sphinx came to mind, albeit a family of stripey ones. In a way, these massive mountains guard the landscape too, in this case against the harsh winds and ice that blast Antarctica.
Is it the sunlight that encouraged the orca to leap above the surface?
'Stark, hard, cold mountains
Covered in blankets of snow
Bracing icy winds'
