"Seed Pod" is part of a landscape series I began in 2009.  Using natural materials such as Japanese Maple branches and Mariposa slate juxtaposed with forms created from acid-stained cement and a variety of metals and metal leaf, I have created a series of landscapes that reflect in an abstract manner my love of nature and the peace I find there.  "Seed Pod" depicts the fecundity of nature as a multitude of seeds spill out of a golden pod.
