Intertwined Aspens — Original (Gifted)

Two aspens with their roots intertwined and showing — golden autumn crowns against a soft blue sky, warm earth holding what holds them. Watercolor and pen & ink, painted loose but rooted.

Aspens live this way in truth — a whole grove sharing one root system, quietly the same tree. Some paintings are about that kind of holding on.

● Not for sale — this original was a gift. Some paintings are made to be handed to someone whose roots you share. She hangs in a home that understands her. The prints carry the gold onward.
