HI

Linda,

Your comments made me think it would be so interesting to start a thread showing a genre of similar paintings (ie kids in trees).

You know regarding your comment about getting away from adults, if that would be one way to interpret the "why" behind the tree climbing - when I watch her lug up the tree her blankets and books, it's as if she's making her own home (ie. her own independent living space). O.K., maybe a little deep, but plausible.

I'm so glad you like it, I seems an unorthodox pose and an unorthodox treatment, but I think it works.

By the way, I've put this in the "unveilings" thread, but if anyone has a critique, they can always email me.

Linda
