Western Hemlock - 11”x14” print

I am a 196-year old Western Hemlock from Ucluelet, B.C.

Don’t I resemble a butterfly? Monarch butterflies symbolize strength, endurance, change, and transformation. Just like a butterfly, I changed from a small seed many years ago to a tree! I have experienced strength and endurance throughout my life. Due to the short growing seasons on the west coast of Vancouver Island, my rings are thin. However, I endured those long, cold, and wet west coast winters, growing strong despite the challenging conditions.

And now, like a caterpillar becoming a butterfly, I am transformed from a fallen tree to an eternal piece of art!

The black rings represent my winter growth; whereas the white rings represent my summer growth.

Each print comes with a copy of your tree’s story.

All prints are made to order.

Frame is not included.
