Tree with Heads

printmaking is becoming more of an intellectual endeavor for some reason. and overly personal.

I'm making an etching trees with hand holding head.
Andrew (Mockler): where did you get this image
Me: one of my friends had a dream with trees with heads in it, and I decided to have the trees have arms because I had a dream with that.
Andrew: what was the tone of the dream?
Me: desperate? confused?
Andrew: what do trees usually symbolize?
Me: being lost. Also suicide, in the Inferno, the suicides are trees.
Andrew: really?...
Me: yea...in one of the levels, not too deep, they are trees because they didn't have control in life and so they don't ha control in death.

and also all of my prints have a cat wanting a fish that is held by some...unearthly thing, so he was asking about that as well.
and we on to talk about little red riding hood and hansel and gretel and he tells me that I should make prints of the Inferno (and how I'm young and therefore have plenty of time to do that), and look at Durer's print of Adam and Eve and Blakes prints of the Inferno.
