Artist Statement
Thought, patience, and collaboration.
There is a deeper meaning that surrounds my piece. It took time for my ideas to come together and finalize the circular oval shape. The shape and smoothness of my piece represents my house. It provides protection and is a safe haven for my family. The rings carved into the wood represent all the family members that have lived in my house; this includes, my father, mother, brother, grandmother, and our five pets. When this piece was finished I realized the importance of my family.
Strength, stability, and compassion.
