Description I painted this artwork from life while camping on the lake Velyo, Novgorod region, Russia. It is a nature reserve and extremely picturesque place. I noticed the symbolism of my painting only after I finished it. 

Watercolor on A4 paper.

This painting was made in June. Technically it's summer, but still very early. Thank you for your comment!

 The tree is a highly respected being, sheltering various other species, from the noble birds of prey to the insignificant beetle grub. But as much as it stands tall, with records of 140 metre heights reported, eventually the tree loses hold of the soil that has anchored it there for the last few centuries, perhaps even millennia. Even these trees, as much as they may seem to be permanent fixtures of the Earth around us, will buckle and fall dead one day. Unless a major disaster strikes the next day, Nature itself will move on.

You're so right! Nothing is stable in this world. Even stars eventually die even though their life span is several million years. Seems like forever to an ordinary human being but actually it is not and it's all right.

Thank you so much! It's a technique of my own invention. I tried to figure out how to paint forest for some time.
