It began with a tree.

It didn’t begin with a finished idea — it began with the frame: a hand-crafted wooden piece made by carpenter and family friend Josef Zöchbauer, a work of art in itself.I’m happy to share two special pieces with you — unique creations in which painting and frame are intimately connected, carrying the living presence of the forest.Heart of the TreeWith handmade frame crafted from alder treeabout 45 cm in diameterThe vision for this piece emerged on a winter walk in a snowy landscape. As I leaned against a tree, feeling the warm rays of the sun, my awareness drifted inward — into the quiet, glowing heart of the tree. I sensed not only the life pulsing through its rings but also a hidden world, sheltered deep at its core.In this vision, two squirrels rest peacefully in a nest, cradled by moss, ferns, and the subtle richness of the forest floor. Above them, vines heavy with wild berries weave a gentle arch, while around them, the forest offers its abundance: mushrooms sprouting from decaying wood, scattered nuts tucked between roots and leaves — all the gifts that provide nourishment and sustain life through the seasons.The scene also speaks of a deeper nourishment: the shelter of the tree itself, the warmth of the earth and the quiet pulse of belonging that runs through all living things.At the center is a glowing seed — the origin of the tree. It reminds us of the miracle of life, which begins small and unfolds into something vast and mighty. And it reminds us too, that within each of us lies an origin — a formless core from which our true nature can grow and unfold.The wood carries its own story. The natural grain, the visible age rings and the raw edges of the frame hold the memory and presence of the tree it once was.Even though it’s not easy to part with this piece, as it holds a special place for me – I’m now offering this original artwork.It is truly one-of-a-kind: a piece to bring the peaceful magic and warmth of the forest into your space.→ Get this unique, handcrafted artwork here:Buy NowA Tree Inspired this PaintingWith a frame crafted from the wood of an old fir tree, likely 150 to 200 years old, this piece is a rare union of art and nature — a homage to the tree’s quiet wisdom, silent presence and enduring beauty.Rooted in LightOil and egg tempera on wood110 cm in diameterWithout this tree, this painting would not exist.For centuries, it has withstood storms, offered nourishment, shelter and refuge — and even now, it continues to speak — bringing us its quiet presence, a breath of the forest it once called home.Anyone who has ever leaned against the trunk of a mighty tree may know the peaceful presence that trees radiate. Rooted deep in the earth and reaching high into the sky, it stands still – grounded, expansive, alive.It reflects something within us that is often forgotten: the part that knows how to wait, how to take root, how to reach for the light – even in the darkest moments.And when the light touches us, something within remembers how to rise again – with deeper roots, a strengthened trunk and fresh shoots reaching toward new skies.🌟 SPECIAL OFFER –A Custom Artwork with a Truly Unique Frame🌟Would you like to bring your own vision to life — in a form that’s deeply personal and crafted just for you?I’m now offering custom-made paintings — created in close dialogue with you, and framed in a unique handcrafted wooden frame.
