Originally when we first started making these creations, only 100 trees were being planted for each one made. Soon we realized 100 was not enough, and we increased that number to 600 trees. Why? It made more sense to plant enough trees [600] to erase the carbon footprints of two people {the recipients] over their lifetime.
These original hand made - hand rubbed encaustic wax rubbings can come: 1. personalized -with the buyers name, or their recipients name, as shown in above pictures, (names have been photo-shopped). 2. generalized - without a name, however still states how many trees were planted from the purchase of a rubbing. 3. neither - No personalized name or generalization of trees planted. [Will include the artists signature, initials and date & artist's mark] Note: All three ways come with the artists signature, initials and date and are embossed with the artists' mark.
Our agreement for this project****To reach a goal of at least 100.000+ trees planted We are only making a total of 300 Rubbings from the artists carved stone study used in the Tara II Project. For now they are made to order and when we reach a total of 300 [made] they will no longer be available to buy. That doesn't mean 300 of each color, it means the total count is inclusive of all colors, limited editions and numbered with a letter of authenticity.
Should you decide to purchase a rubbing, you are purchasing an investment that will have appreciable value in the years to come in addition to having a beautiful colorful piece of artwork hanging in your home. It will certainly bring conversation to its original story and this artwork will hang proudly as a 'giving tree' that generated a planting of 600 trees where they are needed the most in the world.
