Piece description from the artist
One of the most iconic streets in Charlotte and in the South overall is Queens Road West. This mile drive winds under an incredible canopy of live oaks. They stand as much as 80 feet, allowing dappled light to come through to grassy lawns with azalea and hydrangea bushes dotting the shade underneath. The trees are reaching their lifespans, however, and one-by-one, storms are taking them down. I wanted to capture their splendor while they are still majestically standing.
