After seeing ‘Blue Dragonflies,’ a dear friend commissioned this painting. So to match his beautiful verdant room, I used all his favourite colours here; and because he loves to be near water, I added a lake over which the dragonflies could hover …..
Translucent, fairy-like, beautiful creatures, darting, hovering and floating through the air, dragonflies have always fascinated me. However, their magical impact goes much deeper. They symbolise wisdom and transformation, their elegant dancing showing us how to navigate life’s storms with confidence and ease. They arrive in our lives when we need to adapt, lightening our thoughts to create balance and maturity, in order to bring a new perspective and self-realisation. Their most important lesson lies in their short life-span, reminding us to live each day fully, with joy and lightness.
