Just a quick update:

* I have decided to donate my artwork to a charity that touches my heart very deeply: Horse rescue. Watch this space to see how YOU can help!

* I am entering one, possibly two, art shows sponsored by the Equine Art Guild.

* Work on my book has officially started: I will be doing a horse breed for young adults. Should be done by the end of next year.

Update on the other book I am illustrating: It's on hold for a bit. But, it will proceed as planned shortly... Fun!

Stay cool, and be good to the critters....

Oh, and happy First Day of Summer!

Best wishes,
Helen

For E

This horse was painted for you, E.

Nobility.

Love to you, E. I will miss you.

True nobility is so rare these days. You gave selflessly to your clients and your family. You never complained. You were strong. Noble.

For E, today.

Hope is the thing...


Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,

And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.

I've heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.


- Emily Dickinson
