Description

Submitted for the PG101 Patterns in Nature Theme Sycamore bark abstract. The bark of this tree is very thin and lacks the elasticity most bark has so instead of stretching and splitting when the tree grows and its girth increases, this tree sloughs its bark. I collected a bunch of pieces on a neighborhood walk and laid them together for this abstract. Category: Elements of Design

I do see one fish with an eyeball, and by the stretch of the imagination, I could say it was eating something above it. Love this Nikki! #11825616

Intriguing patterns, certainly. I'm thinking the thin, peeled bark from some sort of tree? #11825689

Thanks, All. It IS fun to look for faces and bodies in this kind of abstract. Yes, Mitch, sycamore. I'll add that to the description. #11825693
