    When a huge 100-year-old maple toppled, narrowly missing Linda Murray’s studio, it set in motion a two-year exploration of trees in Murray’s art. She believes that “old trees exude something that is intangible, a presence of strength and wisdom. These trees are saying, ‘I am a survivor. I was here before you were born and I will be here when you are gone.’ They transcend time.” Ethereal images in watercolor, mixed media, and graphite capture the damp, hushed feeling of a deep forest. Delicate moss creeps at the base of giant trunks, and exposed roots reveal faces within.
