About the Item

Dragonfly is an inspiration of a time when I was working. I was moving pipe and a dragonfly had landed on the sprinkler head. I knew that if left there the water would scare him away or hurt his delicate body. So I stuck out my hand and he crawled on. I had a few brief moments to look more closely at a live dragonfly (One of my favorite insects). What a beautiful little creation!!! I said goodbye and released him on the alfalfa. I have seen many dragonflies since then. But I will always remember when a human and insect shared a small moment of unity.

Let Your Light So Shine, Painting, Oil on Canvas
By Stephen Haws
Located in Yardley, PA
This is about the inward light that all humans possess. It can shine brightly as it is shared but is usually not noticed from the outside. Kind of like when someone opens a door for you and your faith is renewed in humanity. This painting is packed full of symbolism of light: Sunflowers I have chosen sunflowers because they are light loving plants. They shine brightly, and bring joy to lovers of nature. I am not sure if sunflowers follow the sun, but if they do the symbolism is beautiful. The sunflower halo is brightest at the top and fades down like the morning light scanning down a mountain. A few of the sunflowers in the pots are not facing toward the viewer, they are hiding their light. Figure The figure is symbolically standing on an altar offering her inward light. She has a meditative inward pondering or peace. There is a vesica pisces between the flower halo and the stone altar...
