16"x20" acrylic on artist quality one inch wrapped canvas. Ready to hang. I like to think that nature has perseverance over the environmental elements... Up here in Northern Ontario the elements are not very harsh, other than what we call high winds which are quite apparent in viewing the windswept pines. No other trees show the effects of the winds like the windswept pines... This would be because there are more windswept pines in the open on the rocky shores, or they grow higher than most other species of trees... What I do know for sure is that they are a beauty and teach us about resilience and perseverance... This is who I am...
