Aaron's Swan   explores the qualities of poise and grace expressed in the face of unpredictability and danger.   The tundra swan avoids swimming in stormy water, but unpredictable Alaskan weather has its moments with wildlife and people!   I look forward to enlarging the swan in this sculpture to a monumental scale.   It has an inherently soft, safe and fun form.   A sloping contoured landscape could easily create the illusion of water and "float" the giant bird.
