Inspiration:

It seems as though I have tackled interpretations of the seasons on many of my sculptures, and I had long considered creating a piece based on the turning of the seasons. The variation in colours, particularly on maple trees was a great attraction, but within myself it is a time when we mourn the loss of summer and the warmth of the sun for a short while. I wanted ’Turning’, as she literally turned towards Autumn, to have one arm aloft with energy and still clinging to her summer leaves and their greenery, while the other arm, with fading energy, pointed to more sedentary times, with reddening leaves blowing in the wind. It really felt like the seasons were turning early as I tried to photograph my ‘Turning’ sculpture, in the wind.
