There is beauty in simple things and new life from these half fallen melaleuca's is indicative of just how amazing our natural surroundings are. One part dies, but from that springs new beginnings. As I walked around this lake close to where I live, I loved the gnarly, twisted nature of the melaleuca against the still waters of the lake and decided it would make for a lovely painting.
