[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
During the first month I was in Portland Oregon in 1995, I painted this picture and gave it to my host father, I guess he didn't like it cuz he gave it back to me :(

This picture is a symbol... and represents a lot to me... I gave it to him cuz he was the father's image I had then... but now I'm happy he gave it back to me, cuz I could give it to the right person... my dad!

why "father" for the title you're wondering maybe? easy... cuz every time I feel like nothing is left, when there is no sunshine and I feel like drowning... my father is the one that makes me hold on to the end...

Happy father's day Dad!... luv ya man!

2 hands try openning a tree... What is that mean? For me, the meaning is "I show you my heart" Perhaps there is other symbolic, but it's the most important i can se...
Yiou have a talent in painting. Perhaps your father didn't catch this point of view? Without the understanding of that... Who know how it could be interpreted... Hiding behind the tree?
Good one! I like it a lot!

Such a wonderful gift for your father. He must be very proud of you. Great painting.

Hi Rodrigo!
Ahhh.......
Photo is beautiful. I really don't know why he didn't like it.
It is one of the most beautiful painting I have ever seen.
I was touched when I read your note.
I would like I can give you 10000 points But I can't. :(
Take care.

Matej.
