a willow tree, or not a willow tree?

I am in the midst of designing my piece based on this gluescreen print:

I have made a fused glass image of a willow tree,

which will be placed next to the screenprint.  I have made a thermofax screen of a design that incorporated both these motifs, hoping that this will act as a bridge and train the eye of the beholder to "read" my gluescreen print as an abstract willow tree. That design is the first photo, above.

If you are confused now, don't worry. I am about to drill holes in the fused glass piece, and if it breaks, nobody will have to figure this out anyway.
