A family tradition continues. My wife’s grandfather had a hollow tree in his yard and he would leave small presents or pieces of candy for his grandchildren and told them that the fairies left them for good children. We carried on the tradition with our own grandchildren. We had a small wooded area with a hollow tree and I added a rustic twig roof over the opening and added a tiny chair and a candle, plus a stone walkway. Dollar store toys and candy magically appeared every time they visited and we had years of fun telling stories about the tree fairies.
This painting is more like a fairy tree village or condo and much more elaborate than our simple backyard tree dwelling.
