This morning I received a photo of my Hummingbird Spindle Whorl artwork being presented to Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex, by the Governor General of Canada at the Invictus Games - a truly humbling moment. I feel so honoured and grateful. Thank you to everyone who has supported me on this journey. I love you all so very much 🥰

The Hummingbird holds a special place in Coast Salish culture, symbolizing joy, healing, and perseverance. Known for its vibrant energy and adaptability, the Hummingbird brings positive energy and is seen as a messenger of hope. Our nation, and the Canadian Armed Forces celebrate the resilience and determination of competitors from around the globe in this unique international event.
