Farewell my sweet little friend...


Tonight is a sad night as we lost our kitty this afternoon.  She was 17 years old and had been ill for a couple weeks, so it wasn't entirely unexpected.
After 17 years, though, they are no longer a pet, they are a member of the family.  She showed up out of the desert and now she has returned.  She lived a full and amazing life...I will miss her very much...

Dear Kaia,
I am truly sorry for the loss of your sweet friend.
She is beautiful.

Take Care Kaia

Once I was satisfied with the drawing, I had to determine which parts I wanted to carve out.  Once this was decided it took me two days to complete the carving (not all day - 2 hours each day).


I probably spent at this point 2 or 3 days trying to visualize a color scheme. I loved how it was coming along and I didn't want to mess it up with the wrong colors. I finally chose earth tones and painted on the first color...

This was exciting - it was really starting to manifest a personality now...I was going to leave it basically with the natural gourd colors and others that saw it at this stage agreed but then I had a dream that night that…
