“This piece was inspired by the old chestnut tree out in front of my cottage. The moist Irish weather forms the perfect climate for a whole micro ecosystem to thrive on its trunk. All the layers of mosses, lichens, ferns, and foliage combine to create some wonderful textures. I can only imagine all the magical creatures that call this place their home.”
