"Ressler whittles trees intuitively, substantially altering their form without significantly diminishing their size. Initially using a chainsaw, he carves preliminary shapes out of felled limbs and trunks, progressing to finer hand tools as his vision emerges. His finished works retain the sense of organic movement and growth. Both figurative and, more recently, abstract, his works employ simplified forms to present a sympathetic, robust interpretation of life in the natural world." Ricado Barros, |
