Willow Tree
Submitted 2018-07-30 10:50:28 The popular line of Willow Tree fine art figurative sculptures was introduced in January of 2000. The first collection included one figurine Black DJ Chark Jersey , 15 angels, and the nativity set. In the 18 years since Artist Susan Lordi has continued to craft the beautiful figurines that speak for us when words aren鈥檛 enough.

Susan received a Master of Fine Arts with honors from the University of Kansas in 1993 and previously taught textile art and design at the university level. When she began her work on Willow Tree, it was her first time stepping away from personalized sculpture creation to designing for the commercial gift industry. Despite the mass market production of her work, it was very important that her sculptures speak to the unique relationship between the giver and receiver.

She wanted her figurative sculptures to celebrate pure form art, in which there are no extraneous details Black Taven Bryan Jersey , encouraging her work to be interpreted by the individuals attached to the pieces. Details and emotions are communicated via the gestures and body language of each figurine. In Susan鈥檚 own words, 鈥淭he viewer decides what the piece is really about. I want people to come up with their own ideas of what a particular Willow Tree piece means. I try to keep Willow Tree open. There is no one correct interpretation. I hope that this makes the pieces more accessible, and more personal. I want to present a product that stimulates the viewer's thinking... that allows the viewer to become a participant in the giving or receiving.鈥?BR>
The uniqueness of her sculptures flows from her creative process. Susan uses live models to inspire her sculptures, a role usually filled by those close to her. Her pieces evoke emotion because her key observations of life and people are captured within her work. She maintains a close connection to every piece and spends an average of 2-3 months working on a sculpture.

For Susan, 鈥渆very big idea starts as a little seed.鈥?She continues to adapt her pieces Black Blake Bortles Jersey , evolving their simple details to include delicate patterns of pierced metal and pressed gold leaf, free-hand surface etchings, and sculptures carved in the round so that every angle reveals a different understanding. Susan carves the way we live, 鈥淚 carve in the round because we express ourselves 360 degrees.鈥?BR>
No matter the occasion, Willow Tree figurines express your emotion in ways that cannot be spoken Black A.J. Bouye Jersey , engaging your heart and the heart of the receiver.



PYONGYANG, Jan. 14 (Xinhua) -- The Democratic people's Republic of Korea (DPRK) on Sunday slammed South Korean President Moon Jae-in for praising U.S. roles in pressuring Pyongyang to the recent inter-Korean talks.


The official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said in a commentary that "ill-boding remarks chilling the atmosphere for reconciliation are heard from South Korea" during Moon's new year press conference last week.


The KCNA criticized Moon for "thanking" U.S. President Donald Trump for playing a role in bringing Pyongyang to the inter-Korean talks through maximum pressure and sanctions, as well as his call for "denuclearization" of the DPRK as the final goal of the talks.


"It is needless to say that the new year press briefing of the South Korean chief executive was to curry favor with his discontent master," said the KCNA in an unusually harsh tone towards Moon one week after the first high level inter-Korean talks were held in two years.


Saying that the two sides have just "begun to kindle the flame for reconciliation," the commentary charged that Moon's attitude "casts doubt as to his intent to improve the north-south ties and build confidence."


The talks resulted in agreements on cooperation in the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics and the two sides also agreed to take measures to ease tension on the Korean Peninsula.


The KCNA also accused South Korea of letting the United States send another nuclear aircraft carrier Black Yannick Ngakoue Jersey , Stennis, to the West Pacific during the Peyongchang Olympics, despite its agreement with Washington to postpone joint military drills during the games.


"We will as ever strive to improve the north-south ties but will never remain an on-looker to sordid acts of chilling the efforts," it said.


"They should know that train and bus for carrying our delegation to the Olympics are still in Pyongyang," it warned.




Selena Gomez's mom Black Myles Jack Jersey , Mandy Teefey, is openly admitting she's not Justin Bieber's biggest fan.


In an interview with Gossip Cop, Teefey says she is "not happy" about Gomez and Bieber's rekindled romance following the singer's hospital ordeal.


Teefey described her daughter as "brave and fearless," adding, "I was so proud of her bravery Black Leonard Fournette Jersey ," during her kidney transplant last summer. She also admits that she did not speak with Bieber during Gomez's hospital stay, and the two haven't talked or texted in "years."


“Selena can live her life however she wants as long as she is happy, safe and healthy," Teefey says.


But Teefey stresses, "She is 25 years old and knows what is at stake with her health. I do not control her the way it has been portrayed.”


“Selena is an adult and can make her own choices Black Jalen Ramsey Jersey ," she adds.


Teefey also denies a rift between herself and her daughter in 2014, when Gomez cut business ties with her parents, who were still managing the then 22-year-old. "Every mother and daughter has disagreements," she tells the site.


“We never expected to manage her her whole life. We lost family time because the only time we saw her, we talked business Black Telvin Smith Jersey ,” she explains. “It was n.
