The Long Breath | In-Tree Faces | Gatherings | Vintage | Ice Sculpture | Past Works

Many faces have actually been carved in living trees as seen below. Placing faces in live trees does not kill the trees, but can provide a very unique presence on your property. Overtime the face will become gray and form a collar of growth as the tree heals itself.

You will find the above face along a country road south of Ottawa, Canada.
In addition to living trees, many people have trees that must be cut down because of storm damage or hazards. As a tribute to the tree, or in some cases those who planted it, we can do onsite commissions if part of the trunk is left standing.
The following before and after pictures show a sculpture done of Marlboro Packard as a tribute after this tree fell down in a storm. Packard planted this tree the day President Lincoln was shot.
Any onsite commissions begin at $2500.
