Well here it is... a battle complete.

Funny how such a pretty picture can create a wrestling match. It's o.k. though I love the struggle as much as the success... it is all part of the game.

Hi Lorelle - I absolutely love this painting. Although the colours are different and the trees my first thought was of the birches I photographed last fall in my hometown. That golden light that is shining from within:
