Description

This piece celebrates the notion of "soul mates"; two people who feel a deep connection to each other, whether they are close friends, lovers, partners or family.
At center are two hearts that intersect, cradling a single soul (represented by the ancient Egyptian symbol for "soul", or "life force", called an ankh). The two hearts also share a pair of wings, signifying that together they can soar to new heights.
Above, a Celtic knot weaves them together, signifying a steadfast bond. Below, their roots mingle and embrace, suggesting a shared history and deep connection.
Ivy vines, which intertwine as they grow, represent friendship and loyalty- the twists and turns of long relationships that form lasting emotional ties. Below the ankh is a swirling flame, an image of warmth, vitality and light.
This print makes an excellent gift for someone you feel deeply connected to. It also makes a great wedding, anniversary or Valentine's Day gift.
