Happy Independence Day

Finally, a new progress photo — my work on the self-portrait part of the painting was stalled when one of our kitties ran away. I couldn’t bear to paint while I was worrying about him. After nine days, I finally found him underneath a neighbor’s house, starving and scared. His tail was broken (probably an animal bite) and had to be amputated, but he’s back home and safe.

“Grey Baby” after his operation. Now I can get back to painting the self-portrait with cats. One of them will just be tail-less.

I love you, Maggie.
Grey Baby has returned and is even more special. YES!!!
I think that your angel is a powerful guardian of all creatures; human, feline, and….
Thank you, Maggie for your vulnerability and strength. I feel a huge connection to you and your artistic process.
All love,
Adesh
