"Squirrel Tree"

This is my newest painting before a few adjustments and more consideration of the title.  It is 26"X20" oil on canvas.  I actually painted it on a squre canvas and liked it so much that I added another section on the bottom and photoshopped out the seam.  The square part of the painting ends at the bottom of the blue house.  For greeting cards and jigsaw puzzles I think the rectangular shape will work better.
