The tree of life nourishes, while the continent is static and is recharged.<br /><br />The painting above has less movement from the tree of life and the continent appears tacked to the wall. In this painting the continent doesn’t appear to float but appears grounded. <br /><br />What is more interesting are the colors in both paintings. The bottom suggests a vibrant life, while the above seems to begin to fade in the yellow and green. <br />I wonder if perhaps since the top painting was recent of the bottom, if your subconscious mind was sending the alarm, the continent is losing vitality?<br /><br />I think these two hanging side-by-side would make a very interesting contrast.Audubon Ronhttp://ducksmahal.comnoreply@blogger.com
