Grow, baby, grow
My whole head is focused on the garden I'm about to start. I want every possible vegetable and flower all mingled together, one square foot at a time.
On 01.02.02, I was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. Too late for surgery, I had chemotherapy, which failed. In May the chemotherapy was changed and I was soon in remission which was celebrated and welcome and lasted nine years - until October 2011. There was progression in 2011 so more treatment was indicated and I am now back in partial remission. But I'm not only a cancer patient - I also enjoy my family, walk my dogs and am learning to draw and paint. Life is good!

I was looking around for something to draw this evening and happened across this handsome cat in an old magazine advertisement. I've never drawn a cat before so this was something of a challenge. I wish I hadn't made the face quite so round, but that's the way I was reading the photograph. It was, however, nice to have an animal that held still!
