Hey fellow DU artists and those who appreciate art.

This is a damaged Cypress tree from our devastating 2015 Memorial weekend flood. The color is really saturated in this image- extra pinkish tones.

"Still Standing Tall"

Hope to share more later and spend some time going back through this Group to look at other art posted.

Love n peace

Madison Cawthorn was boxing with this tree.

It's beautifully rendered. Striking colors.

beating on a tree. Just my first thought when I saw it.

Your wonderful tree really looks nothing like that dude's destructive tree beat-down video. Just my dumb sense of humor.

I loved the unusual color choice. Also the perspective. Sorry to make dumb comments that confused.

I didn't know there was a tree beat down video. Didn't think I could dislike that guy any more than I already did -but LEAVE TREES ALONE punk!!
So yeah, if I had known the reference - I may have understood your "dumb" sense of humor. I prefer to think it was quirky humor.
Thanks for your appreciation of the painting though.

Have a good one.
Love n peace

I have seen a number of her exhibits, but I have never seen that work. I am a tree lover and it is just enchanting!

I've been enjoying your pastel landscapes for a while. A compliment is always appreciated, of course, but praise from a fellow artist whose work I appreciate, is even sweeter. So, thanks for that.

Love n peace
