surrounding myself with trees

Trees are awe inspiring  lately! There is  an arboretum nearby and so I am lucky to have unfettered access to it.

Below is larger drawing!  I was looking for relationships between trees and their shadows! As I draw them I take notice!  I pay close attention to  the the wide range of barks and leaves;  the way trees are always reaching out; how rooted and dependent they are to the soil.They provide shade, protection, cleanse the air by using and storing carbon.  Kind of makes you want to keep them around. doesn't it?
