Original artwork description:

The Anglo-Saxon “Treow” means both ‘Tree’, and ‘Truth’.

Inspired by the folk tale of king midas and the ass’s ears, this is one of a series of charcoals that imagine the trees listening to, and mirroring our thoughts, whispering back to us with their leaves in the wind.

Each charcoal comes stamp embossed and signed on front.

'Silent Voices' was discussed and featured in "Thinking On My Feet" - a book by Kate Humble, released October 18. I was later commissioned to create her a "Silent Voices" cover and also create plates throughout the book.

Materials used:

Charcoal and compressed charcoal on paper
