During my visit here in Houston I have been reminded once again of the majestic beauty of the American Oak Tree. The mighty oak is one of the most impressive visual images I have of Houston Texas. I lived in this lush environment for 10 years during my early adult life. While the heat and the humidity are a challenge, the people and the abundant green foliage are beautiful beyond measure. Texas hospitality is warm and gracious. I believe there are folks here whose hearts are as big as the state itself. I have often compared many of my Texas friends to the mighty oak tree. They are strong, well grounded, with deep roots and have on many occasions welcomed and provided shelter for those in need.

The tree above was created with my Texas friends in mind. It measure 12″x 18″ is hand built of pine and birch and painted with acrylics. The tree is a single piece cut out and placed on top of the abstract background creating a three dimensional relief.
