My next piece won’t be part of the paradise series.  It’s going to be a full-size drawing of the rebuilding of the World Trade Center, as seen from my window.  Here’s a quick sketch….of course I have to work on those verticals.

The bombings in Boston reminded me so much of the atmosphere around NYC after 9/11.  It’s both a personal, and a community metaphor of rebirth.  I don’t want to go into any patriotic mumbo-jumbo, but nations can rebuild and be stronger.   So can people, I’ve seen it in myself, and many others.   So, here’s to rebirth.
