Some temporary works on the Forest of Dean Sculpture Trail, and some woodland and tree planting projects are shown here. More information on the temporary Sculpture Trail works is given here, listed under 'Jane Spray': http://www.forestofdean-sculpture.org.uk/artists/

Art installations and explorations in forests and woods. Creative tree planting and woodland creation projects, working in collaboration, commemoration, celebration and partnership: a growing interest and concern.  Please contact Jane if you would like to discuss developing a new project of this nature. You have probably heard the saying, ' the best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago'.
