now I know in part, but then...

watercolor

“Shall I tell you the secret of the whole world? 
It is that we have only known the back of the world. 
We see everything from behind, and it looks brutal. 
That is not a tree, but the back of a tree. 
That is not a cloud, but the back of a cloud. 
Cannot you see that everything is stooping and hiding a face? 
If we could only get round in front--” 

― G.K. ChestertonThe Man Who Was Thursday

wild kingdom

watercolor and ink

“A thing may be too sad to be believed 
or too wicked to be believed
 or too good to be believed; 
but it cannot be 
too absurd 
to be believed 
in this planet
of frogs 
and elephants, 
of crocodiles 
and cuttle-fish.” 

― G.K. Chesterton

dragons can be beaten

pen and ink

Fairy Tales are more than true;
not because they tell us that dragons exist,
but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.
