Willow Tree - Mother and Son

Moulded in resin from an original sculpture. 20cm tall. "I was thinking about the relationship between a mother and a son of about nine or ten. That certain age when boys start fiercely asserting their independence, and resisting hugs and kisses from their mothers. And yet at the same time, secretly needing and wanting them. I wanted this sculpture to express that push and pull. Liking the touch but, at the same time, pulling away." -Susan Lordi - A gift to celebrate the loving relationship that develops between parent and child.
