The Persistence of Cat Clouds Cloud the Elision of the Clouds of All That Other Stuff

Unsuccessfully Trying to Ignore Our Cats in graphite.
This was supposed to be just a warm up with focusing solely on S curves and gradients.

No cats.
Apparently, I lost on multiple fronts here.

That “other stuff” being eluded is still there blossoming and insists on being dealt with. God knows, I’m wrestling with figuring out how they might be embraced and expressed to the extent that I find myself not able to post anything while futzing over them.

So .., for now, the cats win. Yay 😀.

I’m going back to futzing.

“Bohemian Quarantine” day 14.
To be honest, I find the name kinda catchy and that, in and of itself, helps bring me some humor in the midst of being horrified by the global pandemic that’s unfurling. I’m not actually griping about the quarantine itself. To be honest, I’m grateful for it and I hope it helps and that we can all chip in.

I don’t have a picture or sketch for today.
Rather, I’m grateful for the opportunity to share a post from a dear friend and pretty sick, beautiful dog-mom whom I will probably never meet.
I had written her when she posted this on the 26th and asked permission to repost it. Yesterday I received her blessings to do so.

Please check out her site. I can’t add anything to that; her words stand on their own as powerful, non sugar coated affirmations of Carpe Diem beauty.
Thank you ♥️
