Woodcut
Little known fact, I’m mildly obsessed with cross sections of trees. I love their untold stories, timeline of life, and individuality. Connecticut-based artist Bryan Gill Nash has created Woodcut, a collection of large scale reliefs made from trees on the land surrounding his studio and neighborhood. I’ve poured over it cover to cover and love having it as a part of my coffee table collection!

I’ve been obsessed with the rings on trees since I was little and my father began the tradition of keeping a cross section from every trunk of our Christmas tree.
