Consider land halfway between the sea and hills representing refuge. Ginny considers this land her kingdom, her escape, her sanctuary. She has not only roamed its length and width, she has drawn and painted its beauty. Everyone who enters her kingdom becomes one of her subjects. She may draw or paint them any way she likes. The land symbolizes freedom.
