Painted bronze and madrona branches, last revision 1982, 13" x 13" x 28". This figure was originally part of a piece named Shaman. But I knew nothing of shamans. In 1980, I moved to the Oregon coast. It was beautiful. It would some day become the place where I took root. But at first it was where I had to be, where my husband's work - commercial fishing, demanded that I be. Yet I longed for the mountains, for the rhythm of the seasons and the glorious crescendos of spring and fall. I longed for the familiar.

1978 – 1989
