Monoprints: Tree Scribbles

Some monoprints based on tree drawings. What to do with them next!!?

A new year to find some fresh ideas!

A Wassail Ceremony to 'Wake up' the apple trees. This traditional celebration includes dancing,music and song. Also, toast is tied in the branches and cider poured on the roots to ensure a good season of fruit!

The ancient apple tree has a carved Green Man in the branches. This mythical figure has many connections and represents seasonal changes and re-birth.

I love to draw trees and the old crack willows and apple trees at a local wildlife conservation area provide wonderful shapes and inspiration for the months ahead!
