An extraordinary piece that Blair has created is this beautiful angel that he has named "Forgotten". The angel was hand crafted from a dying tree (on his Haliburton property) that he has had his eye on for several years. The tree was struck by lightening and then continued to grow for many years later. Blair envisioned the split in the trunk to be the wings of an angel and waited patiently for nature to take it's course. As the existence of the maple tree came to an end, he brought it back to life once again in this beautfiul art form.
This is SO amazing! It looks even better in person. Absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt's so good to have the history of the piece ... everybody really likes to know the background of how/why the piece came to be. Great work and wait (im)patiently for the next post!!
