"And where two raging fires meet together, they do consume the thing that feeds their fury. Though little fire grows great with little wind, yet extreme gusts will blow out fire and all." - William Shakespeare
Wind can be a damaging force with catastrophic effects. It can enhance a fire and also destroy entire towns with hurricanes and tornadoes. But wind can also be helpful. With enough force it could put out the fire that it created. It cleans the air and it can cool you down on a hot day.
This painting is called Gust as it expresses the advantages and benefits of the wind rather than the devastation that it could cause. It reminds us to look at the upside of things no matter how many downsides there might be.
