Hi Tim, I just now read your blog. I'm glad you had a relaxing time away and very sorry to read about your loss of Cooper. It's so hard to say goodbye to our animal friends who spend so much time in our lives. I'm glad that he departed with you holding him and with a quiet breath. All the best to you and I hope you have more animal companions in your life.
We had a great time! Like I said, it felt longer in the best of ways. Thanks, regarding Cooper. I felt like I owed him that much after all the years and good memories he gave to me.
Well this was a rollercoaster of emotions. Studio pix, lovely painting, discarded material, table covered in layers of Francis Bacon’s studio thickness, sunsets, the sea, Cooper, gone, artist books (love them). Well dear sir, this was such a lovely full read, with some grief thrown in! Thank you.
Thanks, Tina! It was a great week that felt longer, so definitely a good thing. Thanks, re: Cooper. He had a good long life, so that takes some of the sting out. It’ll get easier as time passes.

Thanks for reading and for your kind thoughts, Nancy, much appreciated.
It looks like you had a wonderful week away! And what a beautiful tribute to your cat, Cooper. So sorry for your loss.

You're welcome, thank you for reading and responding!
Definitely would be excited to see a repro artist book / zine from you!
Thanks, Davin! I’m going to keep looking into this idea.
Thanks for sharing Erik’s work and studio space. His work looks amazing. Sorry about Cooper. 18 years, Cooper was well loved and cared for.
You’re welcome and I agree, Erik’s work is amazing. Thanks, Cooper was great and had a great life.
Welcome back! Your vacation sounds wonderful. So sorry about Cooper; it’s hard to lose our friends. Take care.
