Subject:           Contemporary / Abstract

Inspiration:     My work is often inspired by nature related themes.  Every two seconds a forest the

                         size of a football field is destroyed.  At this pace, the deforestation of the world’s rain

                         forests will vanish in 100 years which will greatly affect climate change and disruption

                         to the ecological system. 

                         "Last Tree Standing” is a testament to the rain forests. Deforestation will accelerate

                         climate change with devastating results globally.

                        glazed, various stains and oxides, applied kiawe tree ash and electric fired in an

                        oxidation atmosphere.
