The Eternal, Sacred Connection

Debra Bernier is a Canadian artist who takes items from nature, such as driftwood, feathers, shells and stones and creates beautiful sculptures with them. In an interview with Bored Panda.com, Debra talks a little about her work,

When I work with driftwood, I never start with a blank canvas. Each piece of driftwood is already a sculpture, created by the caresses of the waves and wind. The wood tells a story and I try to think of its journey as I hold it in my hand. I extend or shorten the curves and contours that already exist into familiar shapes of animals or peoples’ faces.The finished pieces are a reflection of not only my life, my family, and children, but of an eternal, sacred connection we all share with nature.
