| Tree, Sky Sketch Katherine Kean 2013 graphite approximately 9 x 9 inches |
Georges Rouault said, "A tree against the sky possesses the same interest, the same character, the same expression as the figure of a human."
I've always thought so, and think the same of mountains, plains, rivers, and oceans.
"Here is the deepest secret nobody knows.
Here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
And the sky of the sky of a tree called life;
Which grows higher than soul can hope or mind can hide.
And this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart.
I carry your heart.
I carry it in my heart."
E E Cummings

I carry it in my heart."
