hello, Constance. and, thank you so so much for your generous comment and reaction to the paintings. as an artist sometimes we can get too close to the "doing" of a painting. funny, my first thought was "not seeing the forest for the trees!" but its true. Time and distance from a piece of work finally allows it to be seen. Your thoughtful description perfectly captures my intention and hope for the viewer. Tabby
What a pleasure it would be to see the panels in person where I could track the three-dimensionality of your cold-wax method. Soulful work all the way around, mystery intact! Loved The Overstory too.
oh thank you Kristen for your lovely comment. yes, in person the textures are definitely more apparent. come to Montana! so happy the work connected with you. and weren't you just blown away by the Overstory! my but amazing writing.
Yes, Overstory is substantially relevant and just beautifully written, the entire book a poem to be savored again. And, who knows, maybe I will be in Montana again. My mini-van turned camper is ready to explore. I have a poem Dendrochronology on my Substack, fascinated by all the possible information held there. Each tree a library.
I didn't understand the power of trees until I ventured across Australia & experienced Eucalypt (gum) forests. Your works bring back vivid memories. Thank you, Tabby.
Lovely Tabby. Your paintings speak a beautiful visual language for and about trees. It’s the first time I’ve begun to FEEL 🌲 trees via a painting. Truly amazing work.
thank you so much for you most generous comments, Oscar. these have been so wonderful to paint. I even get lost in them! which is probably why they resonate with people.
