the winter sky

At Alt, Ez and I bonded a little over our love of stars and the night sky. The chat was inspired by Ez's quite awesome constellation dress.

I’m particularly drawn to the night sky in wintertime. Neck tipped up, cold air, close stars. So the inky beauty of these watercolor paintings made me gasp.

They’re from an artist named Christine Buckton Tillman and if you scroll through the drawings section of her site, your heart will become buoyant with happiness and light.

I have lived in bigger cities for many years now even though I was morn and raised in rural Minnesota. So I'm always shocked when I get back out to the country and look up. So many stars! Sometimes it takes my breath away and I just stand there, in awe, at the sky. Thanks for reminding me of those little moments.
