"To devote yourself to the creation and enjoyment of beauty then, can be a serious business, not always necessarily an escape from reality, but sometimes a necessary means of holding on to the real when everything else is flaking away into rhetoric and plot.”
~ Elizabeth Gilbert
The Tree Ladies
of Hunting Island
​
The first “Tree Lady” series was inspired by the iconic Hunting Island “Boneyard,” an extraordinary seascape of arboreal skeletons bleached and weathered by the sea.
​
Though many of the Boneyard trees are gone (cleared by the state to replenish the beach), their spirit lives on in the “Lost Tree Ladies.”
Each sculpture is a special tree borne from the Boneyard.
​
As the Sea Islands are threatened by storms and man, my work pays homage to the vanishing beauty of our once wild coastlines.
