Original artwork description:

Autumnal forest scene with stag and ruined chapel with shafts of sunlight and reflection on the water with autumn leaves floating on surface. The image continues around the deep edges so no frame needed.
A Gallic tree goddess, Druantia is an archetype of the eternal mother as seen in the evergreen boughs. Her name is believed to be derived from the Celtic word for oak trees, "Drus" or "Deru". She is known as "Queen of the Druids".

She is often seen as the eternal, wise, and knowledgeable mother, the one who guides the seeker to their truth path as she instructs and teaches the sacred ways of the forest. She is depicted as tall, and carries the 'green magic'. She symbolizes protection, knowledge, creativity, and growth.
