Inspired by my deep appreciation and connection with nature. I feel most connected to myself and my purpose and the world around me when I am surrounded by trees. The particular design I carve in my Tree of Life Mugs is based on a Haitian sculpture I have in my home. Different artists convey the image itself in a variety of ways but the tree always depicts the tree with it’s roots visible. It is a fundamental archetype in many of the world's mythologies, religious, and philosophical traditions (wikipedia). At the artist’s request, the gallery will donate $2.00 from this sale to the arts.
