I painted this illustration based on the book "Jonathan Livingston Seagull". Jonathan finds more value in flying itself than in flying to eat. Even though he is treated as a heretic in a group of seagulls, he carries himself and ascends to a higher level. In short, it is a story that supports people who live differently from others, just as in the human world. Jane, a girl who admires "Jonathan Livingston Seagull," has just joined the Navy, and she tries to follow Jonathan's way of life. Can you see Jonathan's story in Jane's face expression? painted may 2016
