The following painting depicts our inner thoughts and core values. The canvas consists of three distinct areas. The Tree portays our soul, It is shaped by our experiences and age. The bigger the tree gets the more mature we become. The colors break up our life experiences in three parts. Blue are Religious experiences, Green are Intellectual experiences and Red are Emotional experiences. The Tree’s branches take path and shape depending on our experiences. Finally, the third area is our core values that are carved in all our souls, they never change. Those are shown by the distinct tree trunk created by the pallet knife.
