The
Tree Spirits of St. Simons Island
|
Integrated
into the many folklore legends of St. Simons Island are the
tree spirits. These sorrowful faces are the creations of sculptor
Keith Jennings. He was commisioned to immortalize the numerous
sailors who lost their lives at sea aboard the mighty sailing
ships that were made from St. Simons oak. He also carved several
Indian faces. |
The
oaks, which display these faces, seem to reflect their
sad expressions with their drooping limbs and hanging
Spanish moss. Follow the trail of the tree spirits and
let your imagination take you back to another time.
