“Cave” Tree

Every artwork comes with a COA (certificate of authenticity).

I painted this tree in the spirit of prehistoric cave art. It is raw, simple, and instinctive. While working, I let myself become a bit of a “cavewoman,” using minimal tools and embracing a more primal approach. That’s why you’ll find fingerprints left behind on the canvas. They are a small trace of the process and a reminder that not everything needs to be polished to be powerful.
