Description
This painting is of the oldest non-clonal species on our planet. This strange twisted tree has survived over thousands of years shaped by the wind, snow and rain it has the ability to survive in harsh environments. This rare species can only be found in California, Nevada and Utah. It's slow growth makes it's wood very dense providing resistance to insects, fungi, rot and erosion. It is only found at high elevations just below the tree-line with temperatures well below freezing with high winds that twist the trees into their unique forms while growing under seemingly impossible soil and rock conditions.
