Rapidly-drawn contour of a sleeping child - she kept moving. Rain is falling steadily, heavily, hushing most other city sounds at this late hour. Like the child's breathing, it is an immense, world-filling sound, with its own rhythm, its own cadence. I am grateful for so much in this quiet house.

Another quietly beautiful drawing and post. I especially like the celestial-looking negative space.
It IS quietly beautiful and so is your gratitude. Very moving.
love, maria
Thank you both.
