Trees#1

An oil on panel that is part of a series devoted to trees that inhabit my back yard. This quote from Robert Genn says it all.

"More than anything trees are metaphors. Firmly rooted, genuinely patient and content, willing to undergo insult and humiliation, they also open themselves to all manner of creatures and make a home for many. These oldest of living beings have nobility in every leaf. They bring warmth to the northern cabin, and shade to the southern traveler. Daily, they do the breathing for our increasingly fragile planet. If they were to disappear, we would soon be dead. To honour trees is to grasp life."
Robert Genn, Canadian artist/painter
