The 4th of december is the International Cheetah Day challenge! It's about spreading awareness with art to help save the cheetah, which is an endangered species. Everyone is encouraged to participate by uploading cheetah related art, as much as possible :aww:
I'm looking forward to see dA covered in loads of cheetah's that day! I've also got some pieces painted especially for this day to upload.

Many things have changed this summer.
I've lost my dearest Shira, she passed away 18. june. It was very tragic and it shocked us, because her passing came so sudden without a few warnings; We didnt expect a thing more than two days in advance. But it was her time and it was an honorable death, for an honorable dog. She was like a sister too me and I miss her every single day.
After loosing Shira I kind off thought that it was no way I would get another dog; not because I didnt value the company I knew one would give me, but because of my current life situation. But turns out luck had something different in store than what I expected; sudden
May your birthday and every day be filled with the warmth of sunshine, the happiness of smiles, the sounds of laughter, the feeling of love and the sharing of good cheer!
