Did a pastel painting to commemorate a pet that passed recently, for a friend

[LiberalLoner]

I only know her on Facebook but she is a bright sunny kind soul, in spite of bearing even worse disabilities than the ones I have. It was clear she really loved this kitty so I asked her if I could do a portrait for her. When she saw it she was overjoyed and wanted to pay but I demurred.

I wanted just to do a kind deed. Money and stuff has always been the least important things in my life. How I feel about myself and my relationships with others, that’s what really matters to me. Which is why the last two years of on-line bullying have been hard on my spirit. Left Twitter finally, but I’m left wondering why any of it ever happened. Was never given any answers.

Anyway, trying to regain my trust in the world a little bit and remember the world has nice people in it too, not just cruel people.

She is one of those nice people and I was so happy to do a small kind deed for her. I shipped it out today.

Got biopsies on both breasts coming up in a couple weeks and I’m thinking, if it is cancer, I better regain my will to live pretty fast, because a person needs that strength when fighting cancer.

Here is a photo of my painting and the reference photo I used.

Thanks to anyone who looked and read all this. Thank you.
