Tree Encaustic #3- Fire on the Mountain

I have created another Tree Encaustic...using photo transfers of photos I am taking all around Sonoma County...for this series.  This one so looks like the mountain is on fire in the background.  



This tree is in the Cazadero Hills of Sonoma County, in the coastal range, on the Gualala Ranch. 
It  is not very far from where the Creighton Ridge Fire started in 1978.  With the hot dry weather and all of the fires all over NOrthern California...this piece is rather poignant.


 I am looking forward to what comes through next....
