Artwork Description:   The exquisite dragonfly, a masterful flyer from the prehistoric era & symbol of freedom, captured here as a metaphor expressing humankinds need to achieve a delicate balance between the seduction of technological advances & our collective responsibility of caring for the natural world. In pursuing a deeper understanding of these seemingly opposite forces, we discover infinite possibilities abound in our quest for exquisite balance. In this version, the addition of angels suggest a protective quality & connection to the Divine, present within all spiritual beings. This artwork is based on an original, digital photograph of a dragonfly at rest,layered with a multitude of technologically brilliant artistic filters & techniques, printed & stretched on canvas utilizing archival inks via the Giclee printmaking process.
