The Golden Tree

Here's a new piece I did last night...The tree, for me, in general has a very nostalgic feel. It's something I return to if i am uncomfortable or unsatisfied...an image that seems to be some kind of a safety blanket in my art. It can mean a whole lot or simply be an open door to some new idea...In some cases, like this, it becomes the subject of the piece. In others, it drifts to the background as some initial sketch that becomes texture...

With this piece I feel like a child...and I think that's exactly what I needed at the time.
