Finally a short interval

Image
  This is Gracie, a sweet puppy needing a home. Finally a short interval where I could hold a pastel and look at a picture to draw this sweet puppy. So relieved I managed to do it as I felt my ability would never come back, my numbness and paralysis were so severe. Then a brief opportunity, returning to 3/4 paralysis then total paralysis. Art, a bright spot in a very difficult  life.

Poem for Woody

Image
 I find myself unable to draw at the moment due to weakness and paralysis.so here is a poem I have written to accompany my previous pastel of poor lovely Woody, who still needs a home. Greg Crowhurst 4 m    ·  Shared with Public Poem for Woody Please don’t forget me I was saved from death  Living In dire conditions Yet still I have not found my way  Out of here To the loving home I yearn for. Please don’t leave me here in a strange limbo  Balanced between despair and hope. I long to be special to someone. I long for my own precious name tag That says I am home And loved. Please remember me And take a chance. https://pennypawsrescue.org.uk/woody-available-for-adoption/   See less

Unable to hold a pastel

  Unable to hold a pastel, I turn to one finger ipad drawings to express my reality. Hoping to create a video with them.

Poor Bear

https://pennypawsrescue.org.uk/2023/01/06/beautiful_buddy/ Poor Buddy Bear still in kennels after 4 years. I have written him a poem as I anm unable to draw more at the moment. He is so beautiful. Is there anyone out there  Who  can totally love me? Is there anyone wanting a Bear hug  Just from me? I hope you will see me And stay long enough to get to know me, I came from a terrifying place Saved from death. I travelled miles to find the right home. But still I long  To be loved and truly safe With my own person To call my own. When will you find me? When will you come? When will you see me And know That I am the one? Every day I wait for you. Every day I hope. Let today be the day.
