Hummingbird Get Well Card
Artist
Brian Tada
Medium
Photograph - Digital Photograph, Mixed Media
Description
A female Anna’s hummingbird (Calypte anna) visits vibrant salvia blossoms by Richardson Bay in the San Francisco Bay Area.
I made this get well card from my hummingbird photo for a person going through brain tumor surgery who is a fellow subscriber to the Christian Healthcare Ministries cost-sharing community.
It is now being made available on my portfolio here on Fine Art America.
According to an online poll, Jeremiah 17:14 was the most popular healing Scripture, so I have added this comforting verse to the card:
“Heal me, O Lord,
and I shall be healed;
save me, and I shall be saved,
for You are my praise.”
My heart-felt prayer is that the precious love of Jesus, the presence of the Lord and the comfort of the Holy Spirit will go with this card as you order it and send it on to a loved one who needs a healing touch from the Master Healer.
God bless you.

Artwork notes::
Although I’ve had the joy of taking many pictures of hummingbirds in flight, this one is particularly special to me, as it is an answer to prayer.
I asked God to be able to take a photo of the iridescent emerald backside of a hummer as it glistened in the late afternoon sun. The Creator of the universe answered my heart’s desire not once, not twice, but three times in succession, resulting in this “over-the-shoulder” view as this sweet bird inserted her long thin beak into a vibrant salvia blossom.
This photo is the best one I chose of the three.
Each time God sends a hummingbird, it’s as if He is saying, “Trust Me. I’ve got your back. All will be well.”
This close-up photo was taken with natural afternoon sunlight. I am so grateful to God that the lighting and elements came together naturally for this image.
The "Fine Art America" watermark in the zoom-in preview will NOT show on purchased products.
Embedded in the top right-hand corner is the Hebrew acronym for "B'ezras Hashem" [ ב ס " ד ] meaning "with God's help". It is a reminder to me as an artist and photographer of my dependence on the Almighty, the Originator of all creativity. This is a similar acknowledgement used by great artists like Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel who signed their work with the Latin phrase, "Soli Deo gloria" which means, "Glory to God alone".
All artwork in my gallery comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee through Fine Art America, and world-wide shipping is available. Images may be customized for certain products when ordering.
Thank you for your support, and please spread the word. God bless you!

Dear Brian, what a gorgeous card and sentiment!…I so love hummingbirds… Nature’s avian angels. It is not only my privilege to repost this comment but to add to my original comment …Perhaps the greatest gift we can bestow with the beauty of our own artwork is to minister to the sick, the recovering, the dying by giving …glimpses of Beauty to refocus their attention. I hope your fellow subscriber not only is on the mend but has thanked you for you generosity, Brian. You inspire us all. Have a great day!
