Half human and half plant, the Dryad, or Wood Nymph, tends to the flora and fauna of the forest with tender loving care. The shy, wild animals trust her completely because they know they can always depend on her for kindness and understanding.

Deep in the heart of a rose filled garden, overpowered by an intoxicating perfume, a maiden is transported into a world of daydreams. As she drifts into a trance like state, she imagines herself adorned with peacocks and exotic flowers. She enjoys her fleeting moments of escapism.

Mortals hold seashells to their ears to hear the sounds of the seas and imagine life in the deep waters below. Perhaps a mermaid would look into a seashell to see and hear the sights and sounds of the earth above. All of us can embark on a magical voyage through the universe using our imaginations to carry us along.

The butterfly maiden looks inquiringly up at the heavens, soul-searching as she watches the clouds form layer upon layer of strange and wonderful lands. Beneath her multicolored, gossamer headdress beats the heart of a lion offering strength to the gentle souls in flight. A swirl of flowers forming a garland around the “Queen of the Jungle”, gradually blends into sea and stars. This transitional plane is the meeting place between the butterfly’s ethereal and gentle world and the lion’s proud and powerful domain. The outcome of this meeting is a perfect blend for life.

The beautiful elfin lady of the forest strolls peacefully in the fair land of Lothlorien, amongst the exquisite Mallorn trees. She pauses to gather a posy of her favourite Elanor, which grow in abundance at the foot of the trees. Her face is lit by the magical glow from the star shaped flowers and her hair tumbles over her arm like a golden waterfall. A myriad stars twinkle in the skies as if created by the power in her magical ring. In this most tranquil of places she is perfectly in tune with nature.

This fairy loves to whirl and pirouette on the finest of cobweb silk, especially when moonbeams reflect their rainbow colours all around her gossamer wings. After her dancing is done, the wind carries her home on a playful breeze. Each miracle of nature’s beauty fills her heart with joy.

High above the countryside a curious fairy, with a desire to find out what lies beyond her woodland home, is being towed by her butterfly playmates. To her delight she finds that with their help she can fly even higher than her tiny wings would allow. Their wings beat in unison, and gently take her to many far off lands.

Beyond the prying eyes of humans, deep in an enchanted forest, dwells a beautiful dryad. At the source of a meandering river, she revels in her leafy paradise, and is content to spend her time with a passing “Dragonfly”. She is not at all surprised to see that it is a mysterious creature – a dragon with dragonfly wings. Many such wonderful sights are part of her everyday life.
