Jr Statesman II Postable Dragon Flies- Aboriginal Art Pens

[tgsean]

Hi Friends,

In Aboriginal art, dragonflies can symbolize transformation, movement, good health, and connection to nature. They can also represent the cycle of life, and the importance of letting go of the old to allow the new to come through.

• Transformation
  Dragonflies change form throughout their life, representing becoming your true self
  
  
• Movement
  Dragonflies are often used to represent dynamism, motion, and change
  
  
• Good health
  Dragonflies are a welcome visitor to many Aboriginal communities across Australia
  
  
• Connection to nature
  Dragonflies represent a connection to nature and the ability to see the true nature of situations
  
  
• Cycle of life
  Dragonflies represent the cycle of life through the letting go of the old to allow the new to come through
  

Hope you enjoy this pen

Cheers,
Sean

I showed this thread to Marla when she came home from work this morning. We both think it is a beautiful pen.

That is an awesome pen. Just beautiful. I also like the background story, giving the pen more meaning/symbolism.

Thank you for sharing.

Truly unique! I am assuming you painted these yourself? The kit you chose is excellent as well. Nicely done!

No I did not, I wish I could. This is an award winning Aboriginal artist Tina Carmody-Elliot who paints the tubes for me. She lives here in Kalgoorlie in the Goldfields. We have collaborated together to do this functional art pens.

Very cool looking! Whenever my fiancée sees a dragonfly she says it's her grandmother that passed trying to tell her something.
