I’m rather fond of this picture. I’ve kept it on the desktop for a while. It lacks in composition, but it lacks nothing in density. There isn’t one square inch that isn’t active and growing. It represents for me a kind of perpetual springtime. Of course, there is more to life than activity and growing, and sometimes we just crave open spaces to be left alone in, but before you harden your heart or sour your life, admit just for one moment that this density is inviting, is cosy, is beautiful.
