Longing Canopies

Two limbs of two different pine trees, longing for and growing toward one another through the harsh cold. Close enough to feel, too far to touch. Nature visualizes a deep, encapsulating human desire to connect. Their reaching is reminiscent of The Creation of Adam by Michelangelo Buonarroti, but in nature’s interpretation, green branches lie buried in frost. A soft whisper of warmth beneath the cold, a picture of harmony. This quiet encounter is the seed of inspiration for a potential new collection.
