This gorgeous, old, climber in Chatham, MA begged to be painted.
I recall my father describing his great joy in climbing about the limbs of such trees as a young boy. I too have always loved and had tremendous respect for trees. They take me back to childhood... Their power, grace & often imposing wisdom of living hundreds of years- like the one pictured here in my painting.
This is a very expressive, childlike painting about innocence and the power of presence.

easy breezes
