Hummingbirds are always actively seeking the sweetest nectar, they remind us to seek out the good in life and the beauty in each day. |  18 in. x 24 in., Acrylic on canvas Dragons represent courage and power. They can provide clarity, illumination, insight into magic, vitality, and protection while we undergo transformation. In the past they have been feared and misunderstood creatures. I have arrived at the understanding they are beings of Light and from the Upper Worlds. Draku is a wind and fire dragon. |
