Vital Wings of Courage
Personal Project
2026
Vital wings of Courage is a gentle story about finding courage in who we are.
Amid days that shift and sway, with tender health moments and big, quiet feelings, these birds show us softer paths — places full of peace, small joys that matter, and that warm glow of energy that helps us breathe easier. Whatever gives us that warm spark of energy and support can become part of our everyday magic.
Swans glide with calm grace over still water, swallows return with joyful wings after far journeys, magpies collect clever treasures and bright ideas, blue jays stand vivid and protective, and the egret moves with elegant, silent poise no matter the light.
In the end the egret stole my heart — so fine, so delicate — and became my gentle mascot for the company illustration on my business cards. Around them my favorite dots come alive: there are always kind ways to feel brave.
