Title: Fallen Swamp Oak Leaf 1
Size: 5-1/2″ x 4″
Note of Interest: The Swamp White Oak (Quercus Bicolor) from which this leaf fell is a majestic, crown-shaped landscape feature at the artist’s home. Native to Pennsylvania (among other states), it provides cover and food for wildlife. The acorns can be roasted and ground for use as a coffee substitute. This particular tree experienced a tremendously “heavy nut year” in 2016, and has since dropped only a few acorns each fall
Sold.
Title: I Will Prove It
Size: 5-1/2″ x 4″
Note of Interest: This small red maple (Acer rubrum) leaf fell in summer after a hole had been chewed into it, leaving me to reflect on the hole that is hurting us all, even though some chose to deny it.
