Anniversary celebrates the constancy of love. It’s intended for lifelong partners who continue to express their love for each other through the years. The older couple appears to “fit together” comfortably. Susan sculpted this piece using her parents as models. They celebrated their 56th wedding anniversary in #2007. The poetic inscription and carving on the back is a lovely discovery which makes the piece more intimate for both giver and receiver.

Brother and Sister “The sentiment ‘By my side’ alludes to the shared background we have with our siblings; the unspoken support and consistent presents that we often take for granted when we are children, but grow to appreciate as we age. It could also imply that regardless of where our sibling is, he or she is truly always by our side”. – Susan Lordi

I had been looking for the figure of a girl holding her brother--the title was: " He's not heavy, he's my brother."
I sent it to my best friend who had lost her little brother to cancer. She was overwhelmed by the gesture.

Child of My Heart Child of my Heart is a tall figurine of a woman holding a young child in her arms. The subtle implication of different hair and skin color is that the mother and child are not related by blood. The reference to adoption does not prevent his piece from being meaningful for any parent and child. As with all of Susan’s sculptures, the piece is totally open to interpretation. The child could have been adopted, or the woman could be the child’s caregiver, godparent, birth mother, etc., but regardless, they share a strong love and bond. This piece was inspired by a good friend of Susan’s who is very involved with adoptions from Asia. The sentiment for the piece is actually a love poem to a child.
Willow Tree hand-carved sculptures speak in quiet ways to heal, comfort, protect and inspire. Susan Lordi identifies emotions so important for us to convey, and renders them in simple, pure gestures. About Willow Tree, Susan says, "I try to keep the interpretation of Willow Tree open. I hope this makes it more personal, and allows the viewer to decide its meaning."

I sculpted the first Angel of courage in 2001 to celebrate the triumphant spirit, inspiration and courage we call upon to face challenges in our lives – whether they be our health or the well-being of our loved ones. In response to an overwhelming request for this sentiment, I re-sculpted Courage for 2006. I hope this figure can be a reminder of people in our lives who inspire us with their strength and courage everyday. -- Susan Lordi

i HAD GOT THIS ONE FOR A GIFT BUT IT BROKE - AND I WAS HAPPY TO REPLACE IT.
By: Sarah O. (Hanford, CA) on October, 2009
It is a Christmas gift for my mom. She wanted it last year, but I couldn't find it. So I gave her a different one, she liked the other one, but told me that it wasn't the right one.
This gift was for a mentor who took me through a dicipleship program at church. The figurine summed up perfectly our relationship during the 14 weeks the program took. She was loved it as did I!

Together, our family is home
I wanted to capture the time in your life when there’s a lot of excitement, happiness, yet a big unknown. This piece connects the concepts of Home and Family — you are creating your own family — your own home. There’s been a shift in your life cycle. It’s about establishing roots in a way that centers and grounds you as a couple. It can be scary, but also has you in awe. Together, you’re creating a sense of place — building something — permanence and belonging. To each other and to the someone else that you haven’t met yet, but that you already love. I wanted the title to have a hidden layer of discovery ... I like the twist of taking a noun and using it as an adjective to explain a feeling one might have, but can’t always verbally express.
I got this for my Mom and Dad. Mom just loved it. She said she put it in a place of honor in her home.

May all your senses be filled with healing grace
Collector Notes:
New, 2012
A field of lavender never fails to take my breath away. You experience lavender through all your senses – not only its aromatic fragrance, but its pure visual beauty... its form is uplifting, and the color is gorgeous. In any garden, it’s a standout. It even tastes good! Speaking as a gardener, lavender is just good for the soul – and so, it heals. I wanted this piece to be a healing piece. But it also could be seen as a piece about strength. She’s looking up; her stance is strong and uplifted, like lavender. I named her Lavender Grace... perhaps she could remind you of someone who exemplifies a life of beauty and grace.

Now in its eighth year, Willow Tree? continues to grow, attracting new and familiar customers with expressive art forms that communicate beyond words. Susan Lordi hand carves each original figure. Using family and friends as models, Susan tries to capture a moment in time or express a feeling. I want to create a pure form that speaks through gesture. Willow Tree isn't so much about the tangible piece. It represents an emotion, or it marks a memory.

The idea for Peach on Earth was formulating as our country was making plans to go to war. In a way, it was my response. It’s not about celestial peace, but peace on earth among men – what we need to contemplate now. I gave her dress a very earthy color to ‘ground’ it. The lamb is a symbol of peace, the woman, a peacemaker. Peace – here on earth – is what I tried to portray in color, symbol, and look. -- Susan Lordi

I carved this piece so that it could be viewed ‘in the round’. You get a different understanding dependin gon how you turn the piece. If you view from the side where you can see the man and woman’s arms around each other, it looks like they’r kissing. If you turn it and view it from where you can se their faces and clasped hands, it looks lie they’re dancing – and it’s a totally different piece. I like this duality of interpretation.” -- Susan Lordi

You’re always happy to see that person — it’s somebody who captures the essence of life — who’s fun to be around — who brings energy and light. Like when the sun comes out! When I’m outside on a cloudy day and feel the sun on my skin, it makes me want to turn my face up to embrace it — just like a sunflower. This piece is for those people who enrich your life every day.

The Dancer is about creativity. The sentiment refers to the fact that everything we create starts with a little idea – and a lot of times we get these ideas in quiet moments of inner reflections. I wanted to give credit to moments of daydreaming that are seemingly unproductive, but from which spurts of creativity arise. We are quick to reward action and work – the process of doing. But a lot of creativity sparks from seemingly inactive moments, so it is important to take the time to daydream, imagine, and get excited about possibilities. It’s about giving yourself permission to quietly sit and think – these moments are to be valued. This piece is about celebration of creativity, in all its shapes and forms.
Sleep my child and peace... peace... Covered in love and keep... keep...
I was thinking about metaphors of quilts. A lot about protection. A quilt makes us feel safe and warm. The rows of even stitching showing the passing of time, a meditative rhythm — like quieting and rocking a child. It takes time and patience. I wanted the quilt and the rocking to be one. The sentiment reveals this rhythm also — lullabies don’t have to make literal sense ... but the cadence of the words is lyrical and soothing. The warmth and coziness of a sleeping child — the tender connection — these quiet memories exist in anyone who has ever rocked a child in their arms.
