It is with much excitement, I introduce to you my dear little Flying Fox design, a new addition to my family of cute animal characters I've been developing recently. This foxy little fellow is not your normal flying fox, no, he's a dear little fox who can fly. No one told him he couldn't, so he doesn't know any different. He has the benefit of being able to soar over tall buildings, visit his friends across the forests and mountains in a single leap and see the world from a whole different perspective than he might have, on the ground and in the woodlands. Flying Fox is a little night owl, his favourite time is bedtime, when he comes alive and really wakes up, he's not truly mischievous but he does have a twinkle in his eye. The products for my new design are truly beautiful, I especially love the throw pillows, tote and drawstring bags, scarves and hardcover journal, the ruled line version is perfect for babies first steps, there is a blank version for your drawings and sketches and another that has graph paper. The bags are lovely to keep babies things all together, like nappies and wipes, and the drawstring bag would make a lovely ballet bag for little tutus and slippers or the beach or even overnight, it could also be a delightful library bag, some little ones have naps at preschool, and Mum could pack their little blankets and teddies in these cute bags. The wall art prints are just beautiful on canvas ready to hang, or framed, or loose ready to frame to suit the decor in your nursery. There are gorgeous scarves that double as sarongs and wall hangings, and would sit nicely as a sunshade over the top of a pram, while still allowing some light through. The uses are endless for the scarves, and they look beautiful on, really figure enhancing and flattering. The cards are just gorgeous to welcome a new baby! There are also coffee mugs, travel mugs, duvets, and the cutest leggings and skirts ever! Not to mention all the cases for iPhones, iPads and Samsung Galaxy devices, as well as Laptop skins! So many ideas and products to choose from!
I had the idea for a Mandala with animals included inside, however, this turned out the other way round, the Mandala is a flower, that has become part of the whole in a koi pond. Happy accidents abound when you go with the creative flow. This new peace was drawn freehand by me onto the glass surface of my iPad, in a software program called Procreate. These beautiful products, (and there are also a skirts, leggings, pencil cases, iPhone cases, iPad cases, pencil cases, canvas prints ready to hang, or loose prints ready to frame, etc) are all available from my online store, shipped worldwide. The mugs and scarves make wonderful Christmas gifts.
Koi are symbols of good luck, perserverance in adversity, they represent courage and also spiritual and personal growth, they are also a symbol of love and friendship. I have created a harmonic balance in this design, so it’s pleasing to look at and look into for a while, to give your busy mind a little relaxing break from time to time. There is a mandala that is in the shape of a lotus flower or lily which is also symbolic of purity and the whole image is to help guide you into an experience of nature through the visual imagery. The fish are also white, adding to the idea of purity. To me, they have the appearance of fine porcelain, and perhaps they are reflecting the moon above, bathing in light from the heavens. The dragonfly is significant, because after my father in law died, we were visited by many dragonflies, who seemed very curious and it appeared they were buzzing around and wanting to make connection rather than flying away. The represent change, maturity and deeper meaning. I love the idea that the dragonfly and nature in general and likened to powerful medicine for the mind and body. I often feel very refreshed and cleansed after time spent in nature, it has a way of giving me perspective, and helping let go and giving me a new starting place, resetting, recharging, renewing, refreshing.
This design is perfect for so many occasions, love, friendship, marriage, anniversaries, birthday, new beginnings, to encourage, bring hope, reassure, and is lovely for either him or her. Eventually, I will add two more of the same design with colour variations, one with tones of gold and another with lilac tones, I feel each different colour sending out different vibrations for the wellbeing of your mood/s, renewal and refreshment.
