Bonsai - Tree of Life

Description

On my list of ideas, this one has been at the top for a long time. I love bonsai trees (and own a few) so i guess it was only a matter of time before I merged my two passions!

This is modeled after the most common type of tree used in Bonsai, the Juniper. I really like those, and Japanese Maples. (Maybe that is next)


You may have noticed there are wires around her arms. Pretty much every bonsai needs to be wired to get a unique look and it is ok to display the trees in shows with the wires still on. I see it here as a metaphor to the necessity of human interaction to create 'beauty.' Now, in my opinion the female figure needs no assistance to be beautiful but a little tinkering doesn't hurt. :)
