The love and joy we both had, lost, and then thankfully found again.
#art#crea it isn't finished, but I have never seriously attempted painting before, and I am digging where this is going. Much love imgur fam! (Edit: Mom has seen this and is lurking. She thanks you all for the love. She is Ladyofthelake104)

I am mom and I can't believe the wonderful and thoughtful comments I have read from total strangers. What ups and downs. Now the best.

Scrolled down expecting some well intentioned but inevitably shitty painting but I tell you what, that’s absolutely and genuinely beautiful
MrUglyPretty
Thank. That really means a lot. Still got plenty more to do.

I'm also in recovery. Went to your profile to see if you had any recovery posts. I fell in love. Ghibli is amazing! Oh and +1 for painting!
MrUglyPretty
Ghibli and Luna provide the best snugs. They are amazing.

Keep the cute pictures coming! Maybe they can have a painting of their own someday :D
