The Tree Goddess Has Fallen

A private sculpture for Gordon and Katie, carved from an oak bow in their garden, the piece developed according to the wood and then today setting it into the wet clay and seeing this image the title leapt like a bewildered jaguar into my head.  It was never intended to be a goddess but it seems as if it is, diving headlong into the earth. It is also the horns of a beast of beauty rising in the summer lands as the water recedes.
