I was asked to create this piece as a gift for a birthday present. Arbutus trees are a fond memory of his childhood,where everywhere you walk you are surrounded by these peeling, twisting branches. A sight that I can imagine with a feeling of magic. I was lucky to be able to take my family on hikes, up to Comox lake, in search of an Arbutus tree. Out of these walks, I created my first triptych. The trunk representing the peeling bark of the arbutsus tree, the top showing the the colorful leaves, and the winding branch. It was a fun and challenging progject.
