Everytime I see a branch with a curve, I imagine it to be a hanging votive candle holder, as you saw in my "Zen" piece. Well... I figured I ought to try gold and have it match my new Greg Olson painting. The manzanita branch is handpainted gold and mounted in a very heavy prized hardwood - Black Walnut. Black Walnut is very expensive and hard to come by, but luckily my dad has a lot of it milled up and donated some slabs to my cause. I made my own hanging votives and picked out these Amber candle holders at my local craft store. This piece is being donated to a raffle for the Peace Love Swap in Rocklin this Sat. Jan. 23rd.
