The assignment for this piece was to illustrate the song written by our visiting artist, Hill Snider. The song discusses the idea of being heard in a forest when no one is there. This idea seemed surreal to me, as if the forest itself was listening. Which is actually a sensation I feel in forests and the ocean, you are surrounded by life without a soul in sight. I used the Easter Island heads as the model for the tree in the forefront because of the mystery these statues hold. I used Bernini's "Apollo and Daphne" as the model for the trees in the background because it illustrates a classic mythological tale.
