For this brief we were instructed to create a piece of concept art of a tree that had character. I decided to go with a sightly fairy tale or fantasy route.

I wanted to get across the feeling of a spirit or person that had been trapped inside the tree, arms out spread and shouting to the sky. I also placed in a small 'red riding hood' like character to get across the scale. I tried a different painting style for this, with trying to keep any smoothing to a minimum. I believe it worked rather well for some of the tree trunks, but I really did not like the outcome on the leaves. Its something I have always struggled with. I also believe I could have got across the depth of the area a bit better.
