tree with roots

There was a period during my move in May where I was creating. But, a few weeks ago I was able to set up a mini-studio in a corner of my "new" house's garage. This is very exciting for me, moving from a shared 1-bedroom where I was cramped to a corner and had to keep things packed away sort of. A space that is ventilated and where I'm able to leave things out is a huge blessing!
I'm currently working on a few different things. This tree happens to be the first that is finished (I think). However, I've been wanting to experiment some with resin...we'll see. I've also started going through The Artist's Way along with The Creative License which has been encouraging me to do more drawing...I'll be posting some pages up here soon. I've also gotten the opportunity to do some drawing classes with neighbor kids - they're really talented and it's fun to see their creativity emerging!
For the tree, I decided to expand on my painting-on-book-pages to a larger size. So I covered a board with multiple pages out of an old book and then had fun with mixed media. Trees just seem to be a really strong symbol for me at present, can't get them out of my head...so why not keep painting them?!
