"I hope that in some modest way these drawings express man's profound relationship with the natural world, and, if it has one, something of the soul of the ancient oak tree."--Mark FrithMighty oak trees are a symbol of strength and resilience, thanks to their longevity and immense size. They have stood watch as empires rose and fall. Some of the oldest of these trees are nearly a thousand years old.
Many who grow up near a favorite oak see it as an enduring presence in their lives--a magnificent constant in their changing lives.Artist Mark Frith grew up near ones of these oaks and developed a closeness to one local character--the Great Oak at Nibley Green. But they also mark the passage of time on a smaller scale. It was this oak that inspired Frith to put graphite to paper and begin a remarkable series of large-scale oak drawings.
Now, twenty-two of his works are collected
