I wanted to make a painting filled with green color. After thinking of leaves, vegetables and gardens, I settled to paint a green landscape with a tree trunk at the middle. Why a tree trunk? Because, you can carve images on them including baybayin characters. My wife suggested having a heart on the trunk with our initials. Nah...too personal and cheesy (in Filipino, this word connotes something awkwardly romantic). I ended up placing the equivalent of "I love you" - mahal (heart shape) kita (in baybayin).
Mahal Kita, 10" x 14" Oil on Canvas
The missus naturally loved it. Yeah ... it's still too cheesy. Anyway, one can use it for a special someone or for a campaign to save or to plant more trees.
