I had my fun with the iPastels app and Beastly Undesirable Squirrel from the French Girls app (for drawing, selling and buying art based on selfies), both on iOS.

While walking and humming I found myself in tears over my recently deceased feline friend. To balance myself emotionally I need some fun in my life, a portrait!

Drawing other people’s cats. It’s (totally) a thing 😸

It turns out it’s surprisingly hard to draw an apple and not mess up.

Since micro.blog is a paid platform, I wanted to see if it was something for me. I’m not a programmer, nor an idealist for open standards. If these are the only things supposedly keeping me hooked, it’s not working. I’m seriously considering deactivating the account.

If I had to derive any meaning from two of my cats leaving the plane of existence in September (2017, 2018) it is that in the 9th month 9 lives were spent. It is, of course, pure happenstance.

Today I felt numb inside, for obvious reasons, and my art reflected that a bit. Still, it’s better than crying all day over the loss of a dear pet.
