Inspire Me Thrusday - Tree

-












-
The above photographs are sections of two 11.5 x 15" framed pieces containing relief prints made using gold Hanovia ink on soda lime kilnformed and torchworked glass. Devoid of leaves this tree's naked structure lies exposed to winter's elements. The leaves which once generated nourishment will later provide a different kind sustenance in the rich black earth they create. One does not exist without the other and yet independently both the tree and the leaves hold thier own beauty.

Very nice! I love winter trees after the leaves have fallen - you notice the beauty of the branches which are covered up by leaves the rest of the year.
