Pieter told me about the Anna Paulownaboom… Its name sounds just like mine. He might plant one. I have seen a real one this week and of course I had to draw it. Its flowers and fruit are beautiful, like little jewelry boxes releasing their precious load when the time is ripe…
I would love to be buried under his tree… He could keep my skull in his living room as a souvenir.




The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn
