My college roommate and best friend came down with liver cancer after I was scanned NED (no evidence of disease) for my breast cancer. She was one of my horseback riding/camping buddies, and whom I told all my secrets. As her cancer grew and she became terminal I needed to find something to occupy my mind and help me turn off my tears and the curtain of grief that had surrounded me.
For some reason I remembered the Paint-by-number art from my grandmother's basement and began thinking you can’t cry when you are hunting numbers. Didn’t even know if that was still a thing or not. Amazon.com to the rescue, it was still a thing and there were some beautiful ones out there! Over several months I began painting, and painting, and painting...
Painting of all kinds has now become a daily passion for me, the colors of the paint are brightening my world and I’m excited to share them.
