My mission for this piece was to create a flag that is relevant to the entire world. A pretty lofty task. I settled on a theme intending to demonstrate the innate connections between seemingly opposing powers. This piece relies on simplicity as opposed to trying to make it photo realistic. Details are a breeding ground for arguments and resentment, but when issues are broken down to their simplest form we begin to find common ground. We as a species all have the same goals. I chose three symbols that are universal to humans all over the world: The Sun, The Roots and The Tree.

lofty task indeed! love your sentiment on breaking things down to their simplest form and finding common ground.
to me personally this reads:
hold onto your roots; growth and sustenance will set you free and create balance.
color scheme is glorious; earthy and hopeful.
i love this flag.
