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!

It's wildflower time

I worked late this evening and wasn't home until almost 10:00 so didn't have much time to draw. But the sun is bringing everything to bloom and the wildflowers are going crazy with happiness.

According to my field guide, this is a wild radish and there are many in our area. The leaves are sort of radishy but there is no bulb at the base. So I at least sketched this little drawing with watercolor pencils on 4x6 Lanaquarelle watercolor paper, the perfect size for a postcard to mail to one of my grandchildren.
