The Tree of Life & Growth

Posted on October 21, 2014

Sorry to be a stranger…I’ve been engrossed in my Art for several weeks (which has been wonderful).

Sunday evening I got my entry in ‘That Which We Do Not Understand‘ a competition set by Amelia’s Magazine.

I just had to enter when I saw the competition, it challenged me to think of something innovative and to source inspiration from new places.

‘This piece of work subtly embodies a range of concerning questions to which there is no answer.

Including the story of creation: temptation, what creatures unknown on earth exist on other planets and how has our perception of their appearance changed since medieval times.

This work is the fruit of a number of visits to the Grant Museum of Zoo-Ology with sketchbook in hand.’

‘The Tree Of Life & Growth’

I’ve made three colour ways….I feel this one would make a fabulous print for a silk neck scarf…
