Postcards from the Tree Planet
Imagine visiting a planet somewhere on the fringes of the Milky Way where trees are the dominant form of life and the dominant geographical structure. What would a postcard from such a place present? I explore this question with a varied series of 4x6" watercolor and mixed media paintings, all of which, in varying degrees of whimsy, capture the sights, sounds and other sensory pleasures to be had on a tree planet. It's a planet that is on the one hand very strange and populated with oddly metaphorical tree-personalities, while at the same time so familiar it could be our own home. Enjoy this visual romp on 'treeness' and pause to consider where we'd be without that magnificent lifeform we call a tree.
