Description Cut down from her stand, the tree weeps for her old life, unknowingly, her tears water a flower which blooms to a glow, and the tree knows she too, will grow again in time.

I found an old diary of mine with a little sketch like this drawing and the words "let your tears be the rain which waters your soul" I didn't even remember drawing it, but it hit me hard when I found it. I've come really far, but my tree is still a sapling, and easily bent. I try and nourish it as best I can, and sometimes tears really can help

I didn't want her crying in this though, it's when she realises everything will be okay, because things grow anew. Must be 30+ hours work in this, though it was mostly done on one layer... Messed around with lots of brushes, was enjoyable to use texture

She is not an ent or a groot, or anything not from my imagination, she is a symbol, for things growing again

Peace, love and stripping back the bark,
~Blue x

This was the first deviation I saw of you. This deviation....helped. I was looking through artwork and all of them were dark yet hopeful. This one stood out because of the flower. The warm glow of light. Of life. It's things like these that set you apart.

Your art is so beautiful and inspiring. I love this one in particular because, to me, it feels like telling a story about one of those Greek forest nymphs!

So tears sometimes have positive effects... The sapling is a very strong symbol for hope and happiness in the future! This piece of art makes me happy and I believe many many others too.
