Artist's Comments

In Norse mythology, Yggdrasil is the "World Tree", a tree, that connects all the nine worlds
the eagle is Vidopnir who argues constantly with Nidhoggr
the lizard/dragon tha lives and eats the roots of yggdrasil but since the eagle never leaves its perch, the squirrel Ratatoskr conveys insults and comebacks between the two

left runes
Sowulo: power, activity, fertility, health
Algiz: protection, support, a mentor
Perth: magic, divination, fertility, prophecy

right runes
Uruz: vitality, instinct, wildness, unconscious
Raido: journey, destiny, life lessons
Laguz: emotions, fears, revelation, intuition

I've always rather liked Norse Mythology... :)

I really like how each of the branches looks separate, but yet the whole thing comes together. It looks very old-school (VERY old school, as in, Medieval or older :D)

I'd say that it would help this if you took the texture that you made the background and integrate it into the picture. As it is, the background feels a little slapped on, so try to give the tree and the runes the kind of craggly feeling from the background. I'm not sure how clear I made myself, if you want me to try to explain better, let me know, but that's what I think when I see this.

Very nice job, very traditional. The artist comments were interesting to read.
