I will respectfully disagree here . . . I think that the fact that the bids go so high is in fact a sort of testament to the artist . . . a sort of praise I guess. If I were the creator of such a tree, I would be quite honored (can't really think of a better word than "honored") that somebody, somewhere is willing to pay $$$$$ for something that I created. My thoughts anyways . . .

Also, I think this is a beautiful tree, one that I would be very proud to own in my collection . . . but I like the one behind it better!
