Figures emerge from the trunk like guardians of an ancient tree. Reaching upward while supporting one another, they represent resilience, cooperation, and the enduring strength found in community.

This tree of life sculpture is all about the people who hold things together. The figures rise out of the trunk itself, lifting and steadying one another, so you can’t tell where the tree ends and the people begin. I think of them as keepers of family stories, friendships and traditions, the ones who quietly make sure nothing important is lost. Every curve was shaped by hand from a single block of clay using my Intuitive Expressionism approach, letting the forms appear on their own. It is a beautiful piece for a family room or office, and a thoughtful gift for a mentor, a volunteer or the person who keeps your family together.
