Quick one from the Women's March today in Los Angeles. This was great, everyone was was mellow. It felt more like a demonstration of solidarity than an angry mob. #womensmarch #womensmarchlosangeles #huffingtonpost #drawing #sketch ##sketchbook #sketching
Against the weight of a storm-dark sky, tender stems lean forward—some bending, some breaking, some still reaching.
They hold their fire at the tips, waiting to bloom, waiting to burn, waiting to belong to light.
Perhaps this is all of us:
stretching through shadows,
searching for the thin, golden line that divides earth from eternity.
