Answers to a devils demands.

because my mind works in poetic terms and is inclined towards oral history and story telling in general ..


there are two schools of "tree in tray " art

One school is founded in taking a specimen with hidden potential . it then trains or helps it grow to develop and blossom to something grater then it was .

the other takes a developed specimen and cuts and binds it to form to a predetermined end ..



i have cut in my past .. and have trained .
.i have been cut.. and have been trained
from neglect, love and just all that life is ..

some find the control of ego in the work allows the outside to bloom .
. in ways the self would never dream of..
some find the outside world is to blossom their ego ..
their will to control is all the blossoms they can dream of ..

but sometime ago i decided to be one who would build .. to encourage new growth in otherwise neglected and over looked natural beauty .


now this is an oversimplification of a long and involved history and tradition . but ..

what the hell ..

my challenge to you all ..who know you could do better ...........

do better ..
