Today's project is another that I have done previously. I last visited this subject about a year ago. This one has a simple but a powerful theme: A tree standing alone in the darkness, back lit by a full moon. After completing this project, I can tell you that my technique has really improved in the last year. I started with the same sketch that I used for the original but the end result is very different. I should do the same piece a year from now and see if I am still improving.

| Moon Tree Sketch |
In keeping with my recent practice, I decided to build two moon trees at the same time.
The next step is a bunch of cutting and gluing.
Here are the colors that I am using for this project.
Tree - C39 Night Black (Hakatai)
Moon - A20 China (Hakatai)
Sky - A17 Grape (Hakatai)
Ground - B32 Teak (Hakatai)
Shadow - B39 Basalt (Hakatai)
On down and one to go.
After the cutting and gluing, it is time to grout.
And here is the artist with the final product.
And here is the final product of "Moon Tree" the next generation.
