I haven’t sketched for a few years, and I usually only draw butterflies, but I was inspired by Len to give it a try again. This is my Soul Tree for the Seers of the Crystal City. Not quite the epic image I had in my head, but fun to do.
Do you have an image of the Soul Tree? Or another part of the Islands? Share it with me.

That looks awesome! Like the new look of the site, too.
I do have one gripe. Whenever there’s a soul tree or life tree, there need to be hot fairies. So…you know. Hot fairies and stuff 😉
Paul, that’s what your iMagInAtIoN is for (and I know you’ve got one when it comes to hot anythings).
I see them there. Don’t you worry. But variety is the spice of life, and it’s amazing what people come up with that I never could. Like the tree in the first place.
Reblogged this on Paul Davis and commented:
I’m reblogging this for two reasons. One, she’s awesomely gifted and drew a cool tree. I cannot draw trees. I can draw stick people. Two, I leave tomorrow for my mission trip and want a happier post up as my first post while I’m gone for a week! Sorry Christina for using you so. Anyway, check out her stuff. Read her Islands of Insight, poems, and serial novels she’s deigned to put on her blog. She should be published with an amazing book (I was lucky enough to read the manuscript and it kept me on the edge of my seat).
Ooh. Crystal City sounds awesome! And how does it affect the tree?
Can’t go wrong with a tree symbolism, since so many different branches of humanity have revered them in some shape or form for so long =)
The Soul Tree sits in the heart of the Crystal City. The fruit is used for medicines that heal deep physical or emotional wounds.
Yep, I just made that up :).
