My most recent ones:
two ravens, representing Hugin and Munin - Thought and Memory - for my late partner.
Two here, in Sōsho style Japanese calligraphy - a Zen circle, and the character Kan, meaning Barrier, from a Buddhist perspective meaning no barriers at all. Original calligraphy by Steve Weiss.
Also from an original piece by Steve Weiss, in Sōsho style, Mu Nen Mu Sō - No Thoughts No Desires - an old martial arts saying, a highly developed state of mind where thinking about your opponent or technique has been transcended.
Origami unicorn - while I was at the National Gallery on Wednesday, someone spotted it and correctly identified the source idea.
Origami crane, and Ursa Major and Polaris
Bugger, one got deleted by accident - the Zen circle and Kan calligraphy:
