Roughly 13 hours of work.

Special thanks to gigi50 for letting me use her stunning photograph as reference.

Please view in full view. Special attention, and therefore greater detail, was given to the roots and the mountains.

Edit: I uploaded a higher resolution image that was taken on Sept. 23, just in case anyone was wondering why the image was taken several days after I submitted it.

Anyone interested in purchasing the original artwork can either send me a note or email me directly at simon.ajijic@gmail.com for more information.

Comments are greatly appreciated
