I like me some surreal trees.



so, a friend approached me about doing some commissioned artwork on her bedroom wall, a surreal looking tree to be precise. she already has some existing work on her walls, a couple of peace signs. i tried to incorporate circles into my design so that those would fit in well. here's what i initially came up with. of course, this is a very rough painting. but the idea is there, flowing and swirly. i also know that she's into Wicca, and she seems very worldly and peaceful, so i tried to include lots of other circular symbols.








I loved this idea so much that i started another personal painting aside from what i intended to give her. this is what i have so far, i plan to have just simple circles in this design, in different colors and sizes.. no symbols and whatnot.. just the circles. i'll keep this updated for everyone interested =]

















Just ignore the finger =] finished piece! i'm super excited about it.

























Just an update! this piece is up for display at Square Root natural foods in Poland Maine! at a later date it may well go up for SALE! i'm not entirely sure how i feel about this, but whatever ti is, it's borderline excited!
