Weeping Tree Triptych — Original Ink Drawing on Hand caste cement tiles

An original ink drawing of a weeping tree from Moseley Bog, Birmingham, drawn across three hand-cast cement tiles by Birmingham artist Warren Garland (Warren Drawing Trees).
Moseley Bog is an ancient woodland and wetland nature reserve in Birmingham — and one of the places that shaped J.R.R. Tolkien’s imagination. He played here as a child, and the gnarled, atmospheric trees of the bog are widely believed to have influenced his vision of the Old Forest and the tree-creatures of Middle-earth. This weeping tree was drawn on location there, its form organic and slightly otherworldly, the delicate ink drawing flowing seamlessly across three tiles.
The triptych format gives the composition room to breathe — the drawing spreading across the joins, creating a fragmented yet unified image. The natural variation in tone, texture, and surface marks across the individually hand-cast tiles gives the piece a quiet sense of age and material weight that contrasts with the delicacy of the linework.
One-of-a-kind original — not a print or reproduction.
