tbh I've never thought of the symbolism in the boulder + trees. I really like your interpretation, though. It fits very well with the themes of the actual story and has given me some ideas to take it a bit further. I also really like doing 'blurry stuff in the foreground' to better place the viewer in the scene, but I often forget.
I was always the kid who'd go nuts on analyzing poems and such for symbolism, so I'm glad that tendency of mine contributes! The blurry thing is something I've been meaning to include in more of my art, but it's easy to forget, especially when I haven't been focusing on paintings and such with my art lately.
