Rubery Park – Original Tree Drawing on Hand-Casted Cement Tile

Rubery Park is a one-of-a-kind original drawing, made directly onto a hand-casted cement tile by UK artist Warren Garland. The featured tree stands in Rubery Park—just southwest of Birmingham, overlooked by Beacon Hill, and rooted in both memory and place.

Drawn with archival ink, the piece preserves a personal moment of stillness and nostalgia: cigarettes under the slide, football until sunset, trying to look cool when girls were nearby. The drawing is delicate, but the surface is solid. A memory made material.

Rubery Park is more than a drawing—it’s a quiet time capsule. Part of Warren Garland’s ongoing cement tile series, it captures the specific feeling of returning to a place that shaped you. Familiar, slightly faded, and still meaningful.

A deeply personal, portable artwork—perfect for collectors of small things with big roots.
