Greetings @kathleenscarboro.

What a lovely painting.......the dappled light, immensity and graceful lines are certainly elements that would attract an artist. Which you have managed beautifully to communicate and expand upon.....giving the tree a setting and meaning.....so that the more one has a frame of reference and capacity for the subject matter the more one brings away from this work of art.

All the best.

Cheers!
