Do you believe in spirit animals? A friend of mine once said mine is a hummingbird because I derive my peace and balance through movement, like yoga or hiking or fluttering about the house cleaning😂.

Today I discovered that the long-tailed hummingbird is sometimes also called a Sylph – an imaginary spirit of the air. And while painting this, one of my favourite Estas Tonne tracks, ‘Internal Flight’, came on my playlist… and I thought… yup.. spirit animal indeed.
