Landing On Refuge Island

Landing On Refuge Island

Yesterday morning.

The beginning of a long day

of forced socializing.

Attempts to hide

didn’t really help.  

An initial doodle sketch of what such a landing might look like if not concerned with color or light or much else.

Islands Off Solitude

Old Soldier

Another invasion

brings out the old soldiers.

The young have already

been sacrificed.
