Lesley, Penny, thanks very much for nice reference.
best wishes to Lesley for intervention.

Benny is beautiful
 
Lesley, thanks for the selection and hosting! Cataract surgery has really been perfected; you should do really well. I hope to participate this month; I just posted the May entry today, a work that is not my best effort. I have been having work done in my home (painting, wallpaper removal) and have been in a tizzy all month.

Penny, thanks for posting the photos and glad Benny is well. I was going to email you, as you have not been active on any of the art forums for quite a while.
 
Hi Penny and Benny! - Thanks for posting for Lesley. Hope her cataract operation goes well. Ive had both eyes done and had no problem with either eye afterwards. Give Lesley my best wishes.
 
Thanks for stepping in Penny. Nice selection of images. Please send my best regards to Lesley.
 
Lesley. Thankyou for the great photo's. I hope you are recovering nicely from your cataract surgery.

Penny. Thanks for posting for Lesley. Has little Benny recovered from his illness ?

Thanks for all your good wishes. It is amazing tbe difference in sight and brightness it has made to my right eye. I have been trying to keep off computers for a few days .
I am going to have a go at doing a picture this month.

Lesley
 
Hello, everyone. Thank you for the good wishes for Lesley. I will pass them on. It all went well and her other eye will be done in a couple of months.

Yes, Benny recovered from his gastroenteritis and is doing well on a special food. Unfortunately, he has two growths, one on his back and one on his chest and he saw the vet today for samples to be taken and sent for cytology. Hopefully, they are benign and I’ll know in a week, then they will be removed in July.

i have a cold at present and don’t feel like doing much but want to get back to art. Perhaps I will take part in the challenge this month.

Thanks, again.

Thanks, Joy. I am thinking of entering the challenge this month. 🙂
 
I made a start on mine today. It's hard to know if it's going through an 'ugly stage' or an 'it's gone a bit wrong' stage. I'm having fun though, it's the first time in a long while I've done something other than a sketch.
