I wanted to wish all my friends here a Merry Christmas and a Happy and healthy New Year!
Also, I won't be posting for awhile... I took a good fall after shopping last Friday which left me with a concussion. I've had a headache everyday as well as an achy neck...so no painting for a few weeks. After leaving the hospital the doctors told me to rest... no driving... so I'm glad I basically finished all my shopping.
It's been an incredible year and I look forward to seeing all of your work in the New Year. Hugs to all....
Beautiful kitty! Now you rest, rest, rest! Get better soon. Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteOh, nooooooo! It is definitely time for rest. May you have the speediest of recoveries!!
ReplyDeleteAlso, Hilda, I wish you a Merry Christmas, and a very safe, happy and HEALTHY new year. Big hugs back to you.
(And I just love your cat:) )
Not good news on the health issue. Take care of that, we will patiently wait for the new year. This is so well done, looks alive. I’m sneezing since I’m allergic. :-) Take care, happy holidays, see you in the New Year.
ReplyDeleteHi, Hilda - I am enthralled by that expression and those piercing eyes - what wonderful work! So very sorry to hear of your fall and I wish you a speedy and complete recovery. Rest up and take good care of yourself. I wish you and your family a wonderful Christmas and hope to see you back at your easel in 2019.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, this is definitely a cat with attitude LOL , love the expression, great work as always ! Take care and DO rest so you recover fast hopefully ! Wishing you a serene and Merry Christmas . Hugs
ReplyDeleteNow that's some "cat-titude" for you!
ReplyDeleteForgot to wish you speedy recovery after your fall. TLC is in order.
ReplyDeleteOh Hilda, wishing you a speeding recovery!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful Christmas to you!
Ik wens jou ook hele fijne dagen toe wees voorzichtig rust goed uit en zie je weer in het nieuwe jaarlieve groetjes Daniëlle
ReplyDeleteHilda! Love all your wonderful art! Thank you for sharing so much!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry about your fall, Hilda! Falls can be brutal and I hope you recover quickly and completely! Love your cat! We used to have a cat with similar markings. Loved him to pieces!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Hilda. Hoping that 2019 will be a Happy, Healthy and productive one for you. Suexx
ReplyDeleteOh, Hilda, I'm sorry about your fall and concussion. Wishing you a spreedy recovery! I know too many people who have been injured in falls lately. I am going to strive to be more careful. Take care of yourself. Happy New Year! Wishing you a great 2019!
ReplyDeleteSorry, I got sidetracked by your fall and didn't get to comment on the lovely cat. Wonderful job on his fur!
ReplyDeleteOh, Hilda, how dreadful that a fall left you concussed! It probably means that -- in addition to not painting -- you have to also limit time reading or viewing "screens" and such. Very boring for poor you! Rest is the best remedy, I understand, so here's hope that with patience you soon recover.
ReplyDeleteYour cat painting is a grand portrait of the obviously self-possessed Beau. Your friend must be delighted.
I reciprocate your best wishes for the New Year, thank you for all your kind comments, and look forward to our continued enjoyment as blogging buddies! Get well soon!
I hope by now you are MUCH better. Sorry I had not visited sooner but prayers are being held for you. It is alarming to the system when it happens so fast. I was a scardy cat for quite a while after a bad fall. which brings up the cat. WONDERFUL the way you captured Beau's ATTITUDE so the title is perfect.
ReplyDeleteOh, Hilda! Just getting to blogging and finding out about your fall!! Hope your headaches are over and you are healing nicely!! So sorry this happened to such a lovely person! The kitty is wonderful - especially the eyes. I have worked on the velour paper which I assume is similar. Wonderful for pets but, as you said, almost impossible to make corrections! Hope we see a new post very soon. Best wishes for a super 2019!
ReplyDeleteDear Hilda so sorry to read about your accident. I pray you are feeling much better now. Love your kitty. He is beautiful friend. Take care. Hope the new year is a blessed one. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteHi Hilda - I was standing at my easel today and wondering how you were doing since your fall. I was painting a portrait in pastel and thinking "I'll never do it as well as Hilda"! Please take care of yourself - thinking of you - Connie
ReplyDeleteLove.
ReplyDeletelovely work and happy new year Hilda
ReplyDeleteBonjour chère Hilda,
ReplyDeleteJe suis désolée d'apprendre que tu aies fait une telle chute ! J'ose espérer qu'aujourd'hui tu es en voie de guérison.
Je te renouvelle mes voeux pour 2019, qu'elle soit très créative. Je te souhaite une bonne santé et beaucoup de bonheur.
Je suis très admirative devant ce merveilleux pastel. Quelle force dans ce portrait ! J'aime son regard puissant. Un très joli travail dans son pelage.

Preciosa obra Hilda, te deseo una pronta y buena recuperación y que el año que hemos entrenado sea muy bueno en todos los conceptos.

ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your fall, I do hope you are back to full health now. The cat painting is lovely, he does look a bit cross though!!
ReplyDeleteAttitude is right! Love it!
ReplyDeleteOh my Hilda! So sorry to hear about your fall. Take time to heal!
ReplyDeleteLove this cat and agree with you about doing it on the velvet paper. I tried that a long time a go because I love the look. You did a beautiful job! Take care!!
Missing you, Hilda, and hope to see you back at your easel soon. All the best to you in your recovery.
