Lonely

I wanted to work with a photo I took a while back. The focal point was the tree, the rest of the background was without interest. Once I cut out the tree, I found that it did not fit on the left page, but it had a nice spot on the right page. I applied absorbent ground on the left page and on the fabric first.

I like the trees because they seem more resigned to the way they have to live than other things do.
