He's back

"Though I give this land to Our Lady,
That helped me in Athelney,
Though lordlier trees and lustier sod
And happier hills hath no flesh trod
Than the garden of the Mother of God
Between Thames side and the sea,

"I know that weeds shall grow in it
Faster than men can burn;
And though they scatter now and go,
In some far century, sad and slow,
I have a vision, and I know
The heathen shall return. (from Chesterton, ballad of the white horse.)

Here's a picture i gave my sister for christmas
Adonis and the Bubblegum trees.
Paper, pastels, ink. 150 x 80 cm
