BLACK & WHITE SKETCH #251

 Welcome bloggers to my blog.  Well today was very
 Black & White.  I've had a very dear friend who has been suffering from Parkinson's for the last 7 years.  She had a very aggressive form which was unfair and very curl to watch her fade away but she still had a brilliant brain.  She applied for Youth in Asia (Assisted Dying Service) and it was finally approved so she could pass when she was ready in her time without her family having to worry about her anymore.  I won't dedicate this card to her as I know she loved bright colours when I make it will be for you, Robyn.

Please accept my sympathies regarding your dear friend. Some diseases are excessively cruel. I'm glad she was given some control over such a devastating illness. Kathie, I saw your card at the Paper Funday challenge and had to stop by because it is so incredibly striking! I want to case it. BTW, some people claim that Black is actually all the colors put together, hidden inside the dark coloring. I thought it might be appropriate for your friend, since she enjoyed brilliant colors. Flair Cleaners describes it this way: "In physics and on the light spectrum, black is the absence of color. However, in art, black is the presence of all colors. In printing, black is one of the colors needed to produce other colors. In fashion, black is almost magical."
I hope it was ok to share that!
