From Death Comes Life- CE

This is my contest entry for Summer Contest 2012 [link]. The theme is...
When beginning meets end, when young meets old, when love meets hate, when generations hand off the torch of sustenance and survival off to the young and able, the places in hierarchy and usefulness between the young and old, and when everything ends and life meets death. In a few words, the changes of life. Sometimes change happens slowly day by day. Somedays life has dramatically changed from morning to evening and nothing will ever be the same.

From that I thought about how life is continous and in the end everything will eventually die off and the new takes it's place. It inevitable. Not to involve reincarnation in this but I guess the idea popped up when I drew it out as well. Life changes over the years and has a beginning and an end but it always keeps moving on. The pup and adult wolf represent the life the is starting at the base of the tree (also represent a symbol of beginnig and life) that to the pair of skulls that represent death. To tie it together I put them all in a simple forest. Why? Because it's natural to have them here rather than anywhere else.

I used traditional media for this.
-water color
-color pencil

I used google images for references on skulls.
