This is the initial drawing for my new recycled mixed media piece tentatively titled return to the giving tree. People keep telling me I should do more trees which got me thinking about what exactly is it that we connect with regards to trees. I am still not sure what the answer is for me but my mind quickly turned to the story of the giving tree. I think I will be drawing in the rest of the stump as I think it is a little to hard to tell what is going on.
