I remember years ago, learning about the cherry trees that were a gift from Japan to the US in the early 1900's, which now grow in Washington D.C. For some reason that stuck in my head, and after doing a tree spirit a few weeks back with rose quartz leaves, I realized they would make some really wonderful cherry blossoms for a future tree spirit.The idea about making the spirit herself Japanese really was serendipity, but something I think came off beautifully.

This geisha tree holds a fan made from spider webs woven between her branch fingers. She stands approximately 11 inches tall including her base. Her leaves are natural rose quartz gemstone beads, each meticulously wired together.

Her face is hand sculpted from polymer clay, and the trunk and branches are sculpted from apoxie sculpt. Her base is decorated with natural rocks and mosses, and she is mounted on a wood base hand stained with red mahogany.
