This painting is apart of the "Life's Treasures" series that celebrates the symbolism of creatures in everyday life. Snakes have been known to symbolize creativity, flexibility and being able to adapt.  Serpentine gemstones as well are believed to be a stone for new beginnings, resilience and flexibility. Let this snake be a reminder that being open to change rather than risisting can only bring growth and great awarness.
