Trees are such a vital part of the ecosystem permitting humans the ability to breathe. They are altruistic and helpful to other trees and plant-life sending water to friends in droughts and sending signals noting low resources and predators. I’ve always thought of trees as protectors and friends, but also as mirrors to what’s in the human body and as guides in a way. Roots and branches look like and similarly work like nerves in our bodies. Every forest I wander in, I can’t help but to bask in the glory of a tree and these paintings represent that love and admiration.
