    I love this and it is exactly right for her–I can’t wait to see the Sycamore

    Me, too, Karen– waiting for the Sycamore, I mean. This does look Asian. And now we know why you always do such compelling trees. You inspire me to keep at trees even though my tree structures are still a mess.

    I wish I could see that wall and room. And especially that screen… A cloisonne screen boggles the mind. A BIG screen? And the pieces inside–TINY? What patience. I’ve only seen a few things using that art–but tiny– on bowls or small boxes.

    Your tree is super – I think your client is very lucky. She must be thrilled with her new art works. I look forward to seeing the sycamore.

    You are right, it’s different! I can see how it would be quite nice framed on a wall with certain styles. It’s great you can fit in different styles.

    Both of your tree renderings are outstanding–totally different than I have ever seen you do. Bet they did look great framed.
