Why the Tree?
In a lot of my pieces you will often see a tree. You might ask why. There are many symbolic reasons behind my use of the tree. Trees are a symbol of both strength and growth. Have you ever seen a tree thriving on the ledge of a mountain or in-between the crack of a concrete sidewalk? Trees adapt and grow. They bend and continue to search for the light. One could even say that a tree is representational of an individual, a couple or even a family. One of my first personalized pieces was a watercolor and ink that I created for my now husband and I. It hangs in the main hallway of our house. Reminding us daily of our strength, both individuals and as a couple.
