Here is an oak limb with moss, lichen, leaves, sky, and I don’t know what else, even though I painted it. It was inspired by the moss-covered oaks we have in Louisiana. The model for this piece is an oak located on the grounds of Melrose Plantation, which was, for many years, home to the late Clementine Hunter, well-known Louisiana folk artist. At Melrose, she was a field hand, cook, and eventually, artist. Okay, back to my version of the oak.
