I love the majestic yet simple form of the tall thin cypress trees abundant throughout the countryside of Europe. The spires seem to knit earth to sky, integrating landscape and at mosphere. I wanted to capture the elegant architecture of these trees, and create a visually uplifting form for the Nativity.
