Mother Lode




"Mother Lode" originally was to be with pregnant figure on left, where the saplings are, and a seated figure with face turned to viewer, where the auxillary trunk is... originally, too, was a background of islets, as if the vegetation 'spawned' from this overlooking the bluff tree.... but decided wasn't necessary, as well as being tired from doing all the leaves - and that, tho hard to see in this phoro [need see them in the close-up one], are birds, more or less outlining what would have been where the lowest layering of leaves would have been..... metaphorically, is a 'nature' rendering which is actually not one, but perhaps best called a parable viewing.....
