I hope you are all doing well in this nightmare that we're living in. At first, I kept myself very busy with painting, cleaning but now I have become a couch potato .. something I never wanted to be. lol
In February, I lost my dog, Cali. She died in her sleep and it left me heartbroken. She was only 8 and healthy so it was a total shock when she died right in front of me. I have never been without a pet so I'm fostering a chihuahua/dachshund who I named Bambi. She's 9 lbs. The shelters are full so I helped with one! lol. She keeps me busy now and happy. Yes, I will be adopting her soon.
STAY WELL, MY FRIENDS
The cat in the window is lovely! So sorry for your loss of Cali, and happy you are adopting Bambi. Stay safe, dear Hilda!

ReplyDeleteYour painting, the cat's face and the sun catcher create an interesting scene with the sunlight on the draperies, as the cat and a butterfly are playing in fresh spring air.
Thank you so much. and glad you liked the painting... So different than a portrait. A nice change.
DeleteHilda, I'm so sorry to hear about your beloved Cali - so unexpected & yes, so heartbreaking. We lost our Cobie last month, too. It's good to hear that Bambi wiggled her way into your heart. You are lucky to have each other & I hope you two will have some amazing adventures together:)
ReplyDeleteAnd your collector must be thrilled with that painting! It's just beautiful!
Take good care, my friend.
thank you Chris. She was such a good dog and I miss her dearly... but now, Bambi is keeping me busy...
DeleteStay safe, my friend..hoping this will be over soon and we can go out and "play"...lol
Dear Hilda I am so sorry about Cali. I so understand and feel your loss. It is wonderful that you are giving another a loving home. My pets have been a comfort during this time.
ReplyDeleteLove your beautiful painting. Cats are such a favourite subject of mine.
Thank you for being such a faithful visitor. We both know that our hope is not in our circumstances but in the One who cares for us in the midst of the storm. I know He is faithful . Hugs
I enjoy your blog so much Debbie.. so comforting and thank you for stopping by to comment. I so appreciate it. sending hugs...
DeleteWhat a fabulous painting Hilda, really love this !! Losing a pet is so heartbreaking, I know ,I still tear up when I think of my dog who died 20 years ago. So glad that you are finding happiness again with Bambi . Hugs.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Jane. Yes, losing a pet is like losing a family member. She was always so faithful. I decided to foster Bambi but she turned out to be a very loving dog.. I have always had a pet in my house so not having one even for a week was too sad.... hugs..
DeleteThe painting is exceptional. I know the collector must have been thrilled.
ReplyDeleteTruly sorry to hear about the loss of Cali. She will forever live in your heart and she may have sent Bambi to love you like she did. There is so much we don't know but we do know God is Good.
Stay safe.
Thank you Julie. It means a lot to me that you like this painting. Cali will be terribly missed but Bambi is filling that emptiness in the house. So many people have told me that Bambi was sent here by Cali. I feel that way as well since she has so many of her traits. And yes, God is Good!!!
DeleteTake care, my friend and stay safe...
I love this one! At first I thought you'd just painted the suncatcher and that the photograph was of a real cat in a real window showing where the suncatcher hangs now!
ReplyDeleteLucky little Bambi. I hope she fills your heart.
And I think we all just have to give ourselves a bit of a break for our couch potato-ness these days.
Stay well!
Thank you so much, Helen. The painting was such a nice change from portraits. Bambi is definitely a sweet little girl.. follows me everywhere!! Little time left for our couch potato-ness!!lol Stay safe....
DeleteWhat a sweet look this has to it! So sorry about your pet. Little Bambi is lucky to have been selected. You seem to have a lot of love to give.
ReplyDeleteAwwww! What a nice comment Joan! I'm glad you liked the painting and Bambi is a sweet little girl... so happy she found us!!!
DeleteOhh, I like this. Sorry about Cali but happy you are finding some fun with Bambi. Good memories….
ReplyDeleteGlad you like this painting, Jo. I'm glad we have Bambi now... it was SO hard losing my Cali... I still think of her everyday!!Stay safe, my friend!!!
DeleteSuch a pretty portrait Hilda! Bravo♥
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Colette... SO appreciated....
DeleteOh that kitty's eyes so focused on the butterfly! The shadow patterns in the drapery are super! So sorry you lost Cali - leaves a hole in the heart. Bambi is one lucky little girl!
ReplyDeletethank you so much Rosemary...I'm so glad you liked this painting.. yes, Cali is missed everyday but I'm glad Bambi came into my life. Have a wonderful day!!
DeleteThis is beautiful, Hilda, and so real! Even though I know you're missing your sweet dog, I'm glad you're adopting another - my rescue dogs always seemed extra appreciative to have found forever homes. I hope your new puppy eases your sadness.
ReplyDeletethank you so much, my friend. Cali will be forever missed but having Bambi in my life filled that hole. Rescue's are SO special... I recommend them to everyone.
