Trees on Tuesday



Trees are a recurring theme




 repeated in various forms




in my art journals.




I am not quite sure why they
fascinate me...




maybe it's their sculptural forms




 or the wide variety of styles of portrayal
over the centuries.






Longing for green buds to appear...

Visit Elizabeth over at

  1. I am always fascinated by the way you incorporate many art styles and eras in your art, and these trees are no exception. Wonderful take on trees, too. Gotta love the shamrocks you added, too.

    Oh yes, I love trees too. I love them with or without the leaves. They are great sculptures. Love all the different styles they are presented.

  7. You asked about the cakes. Yes, they are called King Cakes. I remember because I copied the recipe and added it in an envelope one year for my Mardi Gras tip-ins I hosted on ABC.

    From what I recall, they were a bit like a coffee cake. Although it seemed like every baker had his/her spin on the King Cake, they all had similar ingredients and amounts. And yes, I have a couple of those little plastic babies they bake into the cake. One of the swappers (Mary DW) included them as a hostess gift.
