Description
This piece depicts a hummingbird flying from the hand of the Buddha to whisper in his ear the secrets of the life. The hummingbird in many cultures symbolizes the magic of the present moment and of being alive. Buddha presents a gift of a dandelion which symbolizes the understanding of the magic of being alive, while a dragonfly rests on his other hand. Dragonflies in many cultures symbolize a change that brings an understanding of the deeper meaning of life.

Thanks so much! It was a tough one because I used in many places a metalic copper acrylic on much of the Buddha and of course the highlights would change depending on the angle you were looking from. It was a bit like painting two paintings on top of each other. It was a new challenge!
