The Staff of Aaron is of legend. Your existence is fabled and your generosity legendary. You have opened resources and opportunities to me that I could not have anticipated.

Thank you! You champion my cause and bless my path in a most unexpected way. Thank you for expediting my progress and believing in me and my work. I'm in awe to have you alongside for the journey of watching my creations grow. Follow along with posts about my progress and let me know what you think!

As a Staff of Aaron, you will get exclusive access to my work through patron-only posts. See the process I go through to bring these creations to reality and follow along with my progress. You will also get a digital copy of the Tree of Life Introduction ebooklet. It is an artist statement of sorts on my concept, a guide for what to expect, and the first part of a catalog I hope to print on demand for the culmination of my work in a gallery showing.

I hope you will also cherish the Lambert Tree pin I have had made of the tree that watched over my family for many years. The interlaced boughs bend gracefully in silver against the white enamel background and emphasize that everything is connected and all paths cross eventually.

Additionally, you will receive a lovely print of “the Lambert Tree.” Printed in shimmering silver ink, “the Lambert Tree” is pulled from a hand carved linoleum block utilizing a foot treadle letterpress machine over a century old! The print is part of an open edition specifically created for the Tree of Life project and is dear to my heart as it is my family crest.

Also, once a year, I will be creating an exclusive "Arbor Senjafuda” and you can be on the list now to receive one! Traditionally in Japan, these slips of paper were left at shrines by worshipers but soon became popularly used as calling cards and collectibles. Patrons would commission print houses to create custom designs that people then would exchange with friends. This print is usually crafted for release during the winter months of each year. This year features snow dusted fir cones! Get on board to get on the mailing list!

Exclusively, as a Staff of Aaron, your generous gift entitles you to three original prints of your choice from the Tree of Life series I am producing. The prints will be delivered to you upon completion of the editions of your choice.

And lastly, remember that print on demand catalog that I mentioned earlier? When I complete the editions for the first show, I will mail out a physical copy of the Tree of Life catalog to you so that you can have a copy of the body of work that you helped me create.

Thank you again for helping my forest grow!
