Life is a trunk


My love for trees and forests is growing bigger and bigger. There's something about touching the trunks of trees, about walking on dry fallen leaves and mud, about listening to the wind passing through the branches, that move my soul. I can keep drawing trees and magical forests to grab some of this supernatural feeling and never come close to understand it.

::

La atracción que siento por árboles y bosques va creciendo. Hay algo en tocar los troncos, pisar la hojarasca seca y el barro, escuchar el viento pasando entre las ramas, que me conmueve. Aunque siga dibujando árboles y bosques mágicos intentando atrapar lo que hay de sobrenatural en ellos, nunca conseguiré llegar a entenderlo.

Yes, trees are amazing creatures - they have real lives and probably can do a bit of magic. I think I am a bit scared of them - although I do appreciate the power and beauty they have ...

a mi también me fascinan los árboles. Pero los que más me atraen son los solitarios, los que están ahí... en medio de la nada.
Gracias por tu visita.
Un saludo!

these are beautiful images of you and your family! i can see "60 años" barely etched in one of the trees. it is touching to think of someone taking the time to count every single ring. and i love the last tree which is shaped just like a pair, or maybe a guitar.
