Atop Lyon mountain, a watch tower
To look across the valleys for fire and call out a warning
I took a warning in my soul.

Acrylic, Epoxy, Cardboard, Metal, Glass, and China on Birchbark on Plywood

This is one solid piece of Birchbark found in the woods by my friend Libby.
(Thanks Libby.)
When it was glued down on the plywood it became like a map or a landscape painting.
I included small interventions to distinguish the mountains.
