9 x 12, original mixed media painting created with paper collage and oil paint on cradled panel.

 

 My friend and I parked our cars and walked down to where her favorite cottonwood tree and fallen just a month or two ago.  Whorly, massive and wild-looking, it lay on its side, stark white where the bark had dropped off, like a naked form asleep in the dried rabbit brush that circled it.  It was one of those sad, but beautiful scenes where you remember that death is part of world we live in and it feels wrong. The stubborn hope of my heart desired to paint a different picture where a living tree was helping up the dead one.  Perhaps it’s foolishness, but I don’t want to live without it.
