Yellow Wood Yet to Grow

Description

Something I am currently working on. The title is an allusion to the Robert Frost poem, "The Road Not Taken."

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood
and sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveller, long I stood
and looked down one as far as I could
to where it bent in the undergrowth;

It is about the choices we face as parents about what kind of world we raise our children in, and the benefits and costs inherent in all societies.

Sorry for the quality. It is a photo of the work taken with a camera phone. I attempted to clear it up in photoshop, with limited success.

The realism as well as the details/colouring is very impressive. And that is so true in what you said in the description about sometimes it's hard work being a parent.
