Tree of Life

Canvas study, explanatory notes, and preserved source mapping.

Overview

The Tree of Life is presented here as a geometric and symbolic map composed of ten spheres connected by twenty-two paths. In this version, the layout is treated as both a responsive canvas drawing and a structured set of notes preserved from the original project comments.

The diagram resolves into three vertical pillars: a central pillar associated with balance and harmony, a left pillar associated in the source notes with form, and a right pillar associated with energy. The result is both a visual composition and a system of named relationships.
