Merry Christmas

hello everyone,

i would like to give thanks to everyone in my life who have touched me and i hope i have returned the favour.

it looks like this year will be a green christmas here in vancouver, bc. though, in the past, mother nature surprised us with snow, right on christmas day.

my teacher at my recent course at emily carr, gently encouraged me to draw and paint cats. i was unsure i could, because i am still missing my cat named Rumbles. wow. she was an amazing gentle spirit. i still cry for rumbles sometimes; i still feel shattered. i include the artwork i did last year for my mixed media course: those are broken incandescent light bulbs, to represent my feeling of shatteredness. i live on the hope that one day i will have another cat. i have to figure out a way to do this. i wrote an article for the black cat white dog newspaper, about rumbles. i includ a link to the magazine. my article is on page 11. Black Cat White Dog Newspaper, February / March Issue i think i will post the full article i wrote in an upcoming blog post, because the article i wrote was edited. i'll post it, unedited.

one pleasant memory i'd like to share about rumbles: sometimes i made pancakes for breakfast, with bacon. i put the plate on the table and i'd turn my back to cook more. i turn again and i see her helping herself to a pancake! probably because it was cooked in bacon fat.

so, may your christmas be filled with your cat helping her/him self to your food, laughter, and peace.

hugs to all.
