Man Strumming Mandolin

Viewing the dark bark on this tree , I see a towering figure with his knee up strumming a Mandolin. Next to him is a small figure with orange flowing robes who is the shaman of the village. He is listening quietly to the melodic messages that fuel his spirit to lead his people out of danger. The soft and lovely melodic songs are healing remedies that communicate through music profound spiritual powers. There are more scenes of this high snowy mountain where he lives with a group of people who have created a spiritual and peaceful environment despite the harsh elements they must confront to maintain their safety. They have been tormented as a result of their values and spiritual beliefs. They live in the land of Nod. Many of my images have graphic illustrations that I see in the bark of trees. Stories appear to be condensed in nature's imagery. What do you see in this multi-textured image?
