Response to theme – I am responding to the theme, and to Peter Sears’ poem, by submitting these images (including “Young Ones” on the cover) as they are, respectively, images of tiny saplings—very young birches growing in the OneTree Alaska lab on the University of Alaska campus where I am Artist-in-Residence—and the even younger, tinier, and more tender leaves of birches at the moment of their glorious “budburst.”
Artist statement – I make big abstract paintings that happen to look like birch trees.
Fairbanks, Alaska artist Kesler Woodward has made paintings about the boreal forest and the Circumpolar North, from Hudson Bay to Bering Strait and the Siberian coast, for forty years. Link to his other work – http://www.keslerwoodward.com
