Description
An Oriade is a nymph of a pine tree. When a nymph is born a tree emerges. A nymph's life is tied to her tree. When her tree dies so does she.
This my political commentary on the clear cutting of the pine forests here to build homes. I never have understood why homes can't be intergrated with their natural surroundings.

Beautiful work!
You've done a beautiful job here. I agree wholeheartedly with you. I wish it were different. Rick
Nicely done.
Beautiful image and a fine idea. I agree totally with your sentiments.
I agree with you! I spend 5 weeks in New Zealand and there it is the same :-( It is sad.
Touching portrait and BG, I like the colors of her!
Nice idea and moving render!
splendid image good background
Awesome image well done!!!
Very beautiful!
The image is beautiful, and I feel her pain. It would be nice if we all could live a little more harmonious with our environment.
hope no one chops down her tree. great tear work.
Very sad, poor girl, excellent render!
splendid work
Wonderful render and excellent point! The answer is it would cut into the profit margin if they had to work around trees and take time to design the houses to fit the existing landscape. In a word: GREED.
Good work and I totally agree that we should not destroy the forests... however, here in Australia people like to build their houses in the bush with lots of trees around. All looks great and blends in well, until the forest fires arrive!!!....
