I finished the grate this morning.. All it needs now is it's protective coat.
It was interesting paining this crusty King (King William). He is not the friendliest as you can see. He has come to life now surrounded by the greenery, I kept it simple and antiqued looking. My job was fun - what a talented artist who ever did the design- many many moons ago.
While painting I do much thinking. It was on my kitchen table so I could walk around it as it is TOO heavy to move, letting Tequila and Scruffy in and out and them watching me paint. As with drawing I am able to lose myself in painting.
Photo below.. one of those things that should be seen live ;-) it returns to it's owner on Wed.
I went to bed last night and did NOT cry myself to sleep for the first time in over a week. Time.
I'm going today to start another painting for me and I'm going to paint something positive and uplifting - My good friend Kat is going to frame it and I am going to donate it (sell tickets via my site and Kats Gallery) All proceeds will to to our local food bank. We are here for a reason. To make the world a better place. How ever you can you must try.
As soon as the drawing is done I will post it.
Another note.. My friend Cathy and I had a good cry. One of my best friends.. we walked the dogs many times over the past years. She loved Hunny as if she were he own.
I get by with a little help from my friends.
Thank YOU - You know who you are.
