Between Root and Sky explores ecological balance, spiritual vision and the connection between the earthly and celestial realms. The owl, a respected messenger and keeper of ancient knowledge, represents wisdom, intuition and the ability to see beyond darkness and deception.
 
Deep roots ground this spiritual knowledge within Mother Earth, reminding us that true wisdom must remain connected to the land. The eagle becomes a bridge between realms, carrying earthbound understanding upward toward the sky and celestial waters. Throughout the composition, salmon move in abundant currents, symbolizing nourishment, renewal and the enduring cycles that sustain life.
 
Flowing lines and interconnected forms unite land, water, wildlife and spirit, revealing each as part of one living and inseparable world.
