Artist Susan Lordi hand carves the original of each Willow Tree® sculpture. Using family and friends as models, Susan tries to capture a moment in time or express a feeling. Pieces are cast from her original carvings and then individually painted by hand. Softly washed colors, carved and metal accents, and representative icons of nature mark Susan's work. These art forms beautifully express love, closeness, healing, courage, hope—all the emotions of a life well lived.
Tapestry is about cherished memories—memories beautifully woven and deeply loved. This piece is very much about healing. The girl's gesture is protective as she hugs her clasped hands tightly to her chest. The ornate relief patterns on her dress and in her hair are of both nature and everyday objects—metaphorical of a life well-lived. The carved icons are embellished with hand-applied gold foil, reflecting our connections to those we love which are all the more precious in times of loss—precious memories woven together as in a tapestry.
