the tree of life sees many seasons (linoleum wax relief etching) 15.5" x 15.5"

In this piece, I’ve tried to depict the balance between male and female. I feel the tree trunk represent masculine whereas the leaves and fruit represent feminine. Each square suggests a season. Winter is male. Spring is a time for making love so male and female, the trunk and blossom, come together. Summer is feminine with all her leaves and green shoots in bloom. Autumn is time for co-mingling; leaves climax in color and a tree’s trunk and limbs are left for winter. Although male and female are very different, we depend on one another. The weave represents our connectedness and dependence to one another.
