Creative art

Just because I liked the idea, I made a triptych of three identical trees; which was the hardest part. 
I used a graphite transfer technique to trace from. 
I started with just one; I wanted a tea-aged vintage look to my paper. I made a Japanese style blossoming tree with mixed mediums; sharpie, watercolor and tempera paint. 
Mrs. Hobart grabbed it while the paint was still wet and smeared the right corner's edge petals. But I made others, that were more satisfying. 
I made this with mixed mediums too; same kinds, different colors. 
And lastly, 
A tree that grows birds. 
I matted them and titled this piece "trees of life", arranging them in chronological order of the seasons. 
I liked it. I enjoyed it much more when it was finished.
