These two sculptures are of a similar theme, the inherent spiritual nature of life and death. They both are made from very old wood and stone. The grapevine in The Path of Nature had a square nail that I removed, and the other beautiful stock is a very weathered piece of driftwood. The natural X is a piece of very old poison ivy from my walnut tree. The vines were cut off before they choked the tree. These sculptures are also addressing the passage of time and the ladder denotes the spiritual ascendancy that each of us follows in life. The cloud represents change. These are some of my favourite pieces.
