The last few days have been very mixed. One of my dogs was put to sleep yesterday. She was 14. For such a long time I have been used to having her asleep under my desk or just outside the studio door, and her absence is strange. I miss her terribly.
The sculpture I have been working on is going well. I am glad to have it at the moment – it forces me to concentrate on what I am doing most of the time because it is so different to what I am used to, but it also gives me moments when I can think about my dog.
One of my drawings was used in the new Axis Web leaflet. I had known about it since before christmas but I just received some copies in the post, and it looks great.
Perhaps I should think about getting another dog. Whilst I can rationalise, our remaining dog can’t. She seems confused.
