I just returned from a few weeks in the mountains of western North Carolina. We have an October trip planned, to take in the beautiful fall colors, which I am really anticipating. Until then, I will have to be satisfied with our Florida type of tree. They have a beauty of their own....not really big leaves or bright colors, but graceful palms and huge live oaks draped in Spanish moss and with limbs that seem to be a mile long.

lovely! Great textures you create with the knife.
this is beautiful, Carol.. I think this texture would look wonderful in a fall painting! Excellent work.
I like the shape of these trees. Do they have a name? Your color weaving is so effective - I love it.
Thanks Hilda, Jane and Julie, for your comments. Julie, the trees are called live oaks. They have great long, heavy branches that often dip to the ground. They live in the south and you often see them coved with spanish moss dripping off the branches.
Beautiful!!! Love all the variety of subtle colors and the gracefulness of these trees. I'm intrigued about learning about color weaving.
