Can you guess where I am?
How about now?
Don’t these metal shapes look a bit like leaves on a tree?
How about these ring shapes? Remind you of anything?
If you look closely, you can see me perched on one of the rings of this tree sculpture.
Why is this sculpture significant? An 85 foot tall oak tree that was one hundred years old stood in this spot two years ago when a tornado took it and hundreds of other trees nearby.
This art called “Embrace” is a tribute to the old oak tree. Art stands where a lovely old tree once stood.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out this ‘tree’ and me!
What a great piece of art. I love the leaves on the top. Tell Sebastian, When I saw the 3 sticks standing up I thought he was looking at whale bones. Ha

Hi Miss Kay,
ReplyDeleteIt is rather cool isn't it? Whale bones?! I never thought of that? Maybe one day I'll see some - I'll have to work on that!
Thanks for visiting!
hugs,
Sebastian
We suspect it's rather harder to climb than the original, although there's probably less splinters...

Hi Jack and The Clan,
DeleteYes of course you are right. Less splinters for sure and not quite the same sort of challenge climbing. Alas, one does what one has to do in challenging times. Maybe they'll grow a new one sometime - though I understand that can take a hundred years! :)
hugs,
Sebastian
