Memory of the Tree


I found a lovely fallen leaf and decided to sketch and paint it. While drawing in the veining of the leaf i realized that this leaf (maybe all leaves) had a pattern very much like the tree it came from in it's design. This reminded me of the continuation of life, and how everything is made of energy, and even when the body of that thing is no longer here, the energy, or pattern remains. And that energy is Love....

beautiful painting Mare. thanks for you sweet comment about my bears, I'm sorry I've been a bit busy, though I'm not sure which bears you're referring to, if it's the old boys " Me too!!" and if it's the guys I made " thank you very very much."

Hi Again!
Beautiful painting. Reminds me of Fall. I'm sorry that my blog doesn't have a comments section, glad I finally found you! Tumblr blogs are super easy to upkeep but not hugely modifiable. Keep on creating. I'll keep checking.

Your cyber friend,
