We are Apes and 6 million years ago trees were our
everyday environment. This picture explores our
relationships to trees - young love at the base;
marriage higher up;
Then young parenthood and middle age at the top.
Colouring and shape are non-naturalistic and
symbolic. The main branches of yellow and tan lead
the eye upwards like road markings on a motor way.
The thinner branches at the top wisp and flail as
their leaves shimmer and sparkle in a mighty wind.
