Concentration on the importance of tree roots and imagining their shapes led to this series and also the installations of "Beneath Our Feet," listed below. However, the tangles that started as tree roots have been seen by studio visitors as kelp, seaweed, long leaves and even branching in circulatory systems. So, they have become Branching Tangles found throughout nature. The paper "tangles" are made with cutout shapes of heavy paper and glue, mounted on 76 x 56 cm heavy watercolour paper with ink and charcoal as a background. These works can be seen as an underground tangle of colourful tree roots, seaweed in the water and more. There are five in the series now, three are flat to the paper and two are three dimensional with the tangles rising up off the paper.
