Old Oak



This is one of the oldest and most majestic trees here in Glastonbury.  I recently spent several days painting it from different angles and at different times of day.  Here's a morning painting.

A few folks passing by asked how old I thought it was.  I suggested that cutting it down was the only way to find out for sure.  Got a few strange looks (even more than the usual).  Without a chain saw, I'd say it's easily 200 years old.
