I wonder how many people will actually pick up on the pun... anyways, this was inspired by Schim Schimmel's "The Waiting" [link] (I love his stuff, his art makes me think of a grown up version of Lisa Frank art.) It was the cover of one of my notebooks from 2nd grade. I don't remember where I got the tree horse idea though...I guess it just kind of popped up. I think it spawned off my storm horses ([link])because I did them around the same time. I hope this has the perspective of looking up at the tree from it's base, if not, I'd love some critique on that. Critique in general is always welcome! 16x20 acrylic
