The Arbori are fantastic creatures of all shapes and sizes that blend in with the various landscapes of the planet. Artist Emily Coleman started to sculpted her first Arbori in 2008. It was originally created as an experiment in texture, drawing inspiration from Miyazaki films while the completed piece was very popular. Then Emily started to create more tree dragons and make them guardians of the forest, keeping out all that seek to harm it. According to Emily “The dragons are linked symbiotically with the forests they protect and share the same life force. The Arbori were born from this concept.”
