Two blackbirds in a tree


twocrowsinatree


I have been obsessing with this image of a tree that just will not leave my mind. I am trying to capture it. Many of the images I have been creating have nibbled around the edges of The Tree As I Have Been Seeing It In My Mind, but none of them have quite gotten the full essence of it. This tree is one I have been working on this week. It's a watercolor base with metallic gel pens and polyester flake, done on 140-lb cold press paper.

It's just beautiful. Will you put something like this on Etsy?

There are times I think my family tree looks like that, albeit not so colorful.  :)
