The Trees of Life
“Spiral Of Life (Ivy)”

SPIRAL OF LIFE uses images drawn from the Ivy: the leaves spiralling around another tree\'s trunk. Ivy is symbolic of humility and perseverance since it begins as a weak plant but eventually grows very sturdy. Ivy is unusual by flowering in October, which is a time of decay for deciduous plants: evergreen - ever hopeful.
