Big Gold Tree

I loves the big gold tree - it is comprised of 2 trees - The first, the base, was my first attempt at tree-making. It has 3 dark metallic beads on most of the branches. I loved forming the branches & roots, it was my first cuts, my first real sense of creating a growing thing.

The second tree growing up into the branches was my third tree, it has only 1 dark metallic bead per branch. The trunk was entirely too long but also too thick for that spark which would lead one of my wayward trees into becoming a necklace.

I kept twisting until it dawned on me that it could grow around that already tallish gold tree. After carefully twisting out & trimming up the roots I came to love the blend as it winds up & around.
