This is my newest creation Tree Of Life. Here is a photo of her in her beginning stages and two of her near completion.
The Tree Of Life shows up in many cultures. The roots grow up into the sky with the branches reaching down into the earth. Here is where we understand that the material world and the spiritual world are but a reflection of one another as in the reflection of a tree at the water's edge. I have sculpted this piece in a Yoga pose called Adho Mukha Vrksasana which is translated as "Downward Facing Tree". The Tree Of Life is symbolized by the Banyon tree which is thought of as perfectly symbolizing life due to it's unending expansion.
She is currently for sale on ETSY; http://www.etsy.com/listing/76385842/tree-of-life
