All my life, I've learnt to suppress my passion for art. So many people keep telling me that art is not practical in Singapore and that artists would starve. I had to give up art and work in jobs which I hate. I am glad that after all these years, I have the courage to pursue my dreams.
My little angel on the right, has accompanied me for 8 years. A wonderful 8 years. I always ask her if she could dance like Garfield haha...
It was raining heavily that night. I heard a kitten's wailing outside my corridor. I opened my door and saw a tiny angel which seemed to have lost its way. I was living on the 10th storey then and U wondered why and how she got here. I took my angel in, fed her and bathed her. I allowed her to sleep for the night. This little angel of mine behaved so well. By morning, she was still on the couch which i placed her for the night. She started to meow when she heard me coming out from the bedroom. I picked her up merely with my thumb and forefinger. She was so tiny and I guessed she must be hungry. Since she was so obedient, she was allowed to stay for another night. I left her on the couch again and the next morning, she was still at the same position. All right, I told myself that there would not be another night for her. I left my door wide open that afternoon, expecting her to leave and continue exploring the world. However, whenever she reached the door, she turned back immediately.
Days passed in a flash. She is 8-years-old now. She brings me so much joy, love and comfort. I didn't know having such wonderful pet could make a person smile everyday. Especially after a long tired day at work, when i get back home, she is always at the door waiting for me. Who says cats don't greet their owners?
When I took up drawing again, my angel is my natural subject. Every line and shade of her contains the love I have not only for her but also for the love of art...
