Tree Speak

I walk through the forest,
the trees tall and knowing,

Remembering our years,
of wisdom and courage.

One of the things 2020 brought me was words, it was a good year to write, words earthed their way onto the page month after month. A number of them were about trees and being in the company of them, memories too, of my time in an ancient woodland in Wales.

A fortnight ago, by the Redwoods, I saw a Peregrine and then an Owl in my imagination, both connected to what I’m currently working on. I then created the Peregrine artwork below in ink and watercolour.

The full version of “Tree Speak”, and accompanying film can be seen over on my Instagram page.
