Full Circle - Yellow Cedar Panel




Full Circle - Yellow Cedar Panel
42" dia. x 2"
With cedar bark.
'Full Circle' is the artist's reflection on the importance of balance and connection between the living things in this world. A frog and a fireweed are depicted together, the frog a very sensitive being and the fireweed is a very adaptive being, both are very influenced by their surrounding environments. The fireweed seeds also represent the frog's eggs, asking the viewer to consider the next generations. 'Full Circle' illustrates patterns and circular shapes to represent a wholeness, continuous cycles, and a balance that needs to be kept.
