"I became interested in Celtic knots and quickly realized how complex they can become. I enjoy the challenge of incorporating them into my designs. The Celtic Tree of Life is an oak tree. On the Northwest Coast, the Tree of Life is a cedar tree, as it provides many resources and offers so much. Our growth, in some ways, depends on the cedar trees continuing to grow. The bear on the opposite side of the pendant represents the teaching of knowledge, since both culture and nature need nurturing to survive."
