- Опубликовано: 9 июл 2024
- Hi everyone, today I'm sharing with you these past 10 days of my life dealing with a critical life situation. I continue to sketch in my sketchbook these days to combat the difficult days full of emotions. On this day, I was finally able to calm down more and finish one page in a day. I sat in the kitchen and sketched a carton of creamer, ketchup packets, and DuDu laying down in the basement.
🎨 Materials I used:
- Sailor's fude fountain pen
- Noodler's Brown 41 Ink (to fill the fountain pen)
- Mungyo watercolors
- Etchr Mix-Media A4 size Landscape Sketchbook
- Holbein Water Brush (large tip)
- Holbein water brush (medium tip)

Tell DuDu he's an indoor cat only, no more outdoor fights.
How stressful! We all know how much you love him. He just needs to recover now ❤
Thoughts and prayers for DuDu, you and your family. May he recover soon. Enjoyed your sketches and paintings.
Wishing a complete recovery to your little guy. What an awful thing for all of you to go through.
Hope Dudu's recovery is quick and full - must have been an awful week for you, worrying about him. Glad to hear that the smaller hospital was able to tend to his needs at a reasonable price. Take care!
Sending positive vibes - wishing DuDu a painless recovery ❤️🩹
Wishing DuDu a full and speedy recovery.❤️
Lots of love to you and DuDu, Becky. Praying DuDu recovers quickly! ❤🤗
Becky, my heart goes out to you and DuDu , I know the trauma you've both gone through. A few years ago our little dog was freightened by the fireworks on the 4th of July and ran. She was gone for four days. We searched night and day for her, finally found her. She couldn't walk because the pads of her feet were burnt so badly... nothing like the injury DuDu suffered but the overall trauma was dificult for our family. I hope you both heal quickly .
Poor Dudu...wishing him a speedy recovery!
I am so happy to hear DuDu is feeling better. Such a worry. Your sketching is wonderful.
so sorry to hear your cat was hurt but very glad he is recovering!
Aww, I am so sorry he was injured so much. So glad he is home again with you where he can get all the love and care. Give him a gentle pet for me.
So glad your precious pet is ok!! Beautiful painting. Thank you for sharing, and teaching. ❤
Happy DuDu is home safe and recovering.
Hoping the best for Dudu. You are a wonderful kitty Mama. Thank you for showing how sketching helps you cope with difficult times. An important life lesson!
I'm so sorry to hear about poor DuDu but am glad hes on the the road of recovery. Sending love and kind thoughts to you and your family.
Poor DuDu….prayers for his recovery. Sounds like he needs to become an indoor kitty because now he will never be fast enough to avoid other more aggressive male cats in the area. He won’t be able to defend himself adequately. We love our pets like family, I know this has been difficult for you too. Prayers for you too.
Oh my goodness Becky! Sorry to see Dudu’s misfortune. It’s a dangerous world out there. He is blessed to have you and your family caring for him. Sending hugs and prayers to you all from Texas.💐
Sending you my love and strength, hope DuDu recovers and gets back to cat mode.
So sorry to hear about, DuDu, Becky. These days must be so difficult for you and your family. He is very lucky to have such a loving and caring family. I hope your drawing provides some comfort to you. Get well soon, DuDu!!
Oh no, Becky. I was tearing up and very sorry. Hope Dudu recovers soon and sorry you all went through this ordeal. Get well soon, Dudu.
Best wishes for Dudu's continued recovery.
I’m so glad your precious “Do-Do” is okay now…healing under your love ❤️ and care.
Love you and DuDu and sending affirmative prayers of rapid recovery and vibrant health. 🙏🏼💕
Poor little Dudu and hoow stressful for you all. wishing him a speedy recovery
Oh Becky, I'm so happy you have DuDo in your life again. I can't imagine the nightmare you were living not knowing where he was. It's a tough world out there. So many of my neighbors have had cats gone missing. We've held search parties and been on the neighborhood lookout but so many stories are unresolved or have sad endings. I have dogs so they are mostly inside where I can watch them or outdoors when I'm with them. Sending love and gratitude for Dudu's safe return. Remind Dudu, stay close, the grass doesn't get any greener than home. XO to you and yours.
I feel your agony for poor Dudu 😢 glad he's recovering,,,,,,much love from England 🏴
Speedy recovery to Du du. Wishing him a speedy recovery.
I hope DoDo is recovering. My heart goes out to you Becky. He is lucky to have you and your family. Love from Arizona 🌵
I’m so sorry about your dear cat. I lost my darling young cat to kidney failure yesterday and I sure wish there was a surgery that could have let him live. I’m thankful your boy will live!
So sorry for your loss! I lost my sweet little girl, Iggy, last summer to kidney failure. Time does heal. I can finally talk about her and remember all her sweetness with a smile instead of tears. In the meantime, try a little journaling about her. I drew little pictures of her (I am not a good artist but that didn't matter) and jotted down all kinds of little things she did that I loved. I cried my eyes out while doing it, but it was also healing.
I'm so sorry for your loss! Thank you for your kind word. ❤️
@@mariac4602 oh I’m so sorry about Iggy 😭 it’s so heartbreaking to lose these little ones who are such a huge part of our daily lives. Thank you for the encouragement. I’m embarrassed to keep crying- especially in light of the craziness and brokenness all around the world. But he was very special to me and I know there will never be another quite like him. The most snuggly and sweet and intelligent cat I’ve ever had- and I’ve had nearly 60 years of life with pets.
Cat s are amazingly resilient as I’m sure you will agree Becky! ❤
Sending a lot of love to Dudu. Hope he gets well soon 💛
Oh goodness! Hope Doo-doo feels better soon! Maybe he should be an indoor kitty from now on. Big hugs to you both! 😺❤️😁✨👍
Oh Becky! So glad DuDu is doing well. Our pets really hold hearts in their little paws. It’s a wonder your paintings were so good! Sending much love and healing vibes. 💞💞💞
Glad to hear that Dudu is recovering!
Sure glad to hear that DuDu is on the mend ❤️
I am so happy to hear that DuDu is recovering well! Thank goodness, cats are strong and tough creatures, and he is so lucky to have loving and caring humans like you and your family. ❤😽✨
Puuuur Dudu 😥 wishing DuDu all the best 🌈💜👍
Our pets become part of our life no matter how lazy or naughty they are. It's normal to worry when things go wrong but a relief when things come good. Dudu in this case.
Happy to know you're ok too and thankful you're able to concentrate somewhat during Dudu's healing and recovery.
I started basic sketching only a few months ago after watching you with dialogue about your sketches. Your style appealed to me. I also copied you in getting myself a Sailor pen like yours and I like using it. I do need some practice with colour wash since I have just a lot of line work for now.
Prior to sketching I had no idea how deep and wide the art world is with paints, pens, inks and papers. Very overwhelming.
Take care Becky and wishing Dudu a full recovery.
...amazing that he is back home. So happy for you and totally understand the difficulty of worry for our furry family members and the struggle to focus!
Thank you so much, Anji!
Poor cat... I'm so sorry. He's on the mend!!❤️❤️❤️
I am so sorry about your lovely cat. may he have a quick recovery. lots of love and prayers.
So glad your kitty is recovering.
It's nice to know your furry buddy is on the mend. I love watching you sketch and paint.
Oh Becky! I’m so sorry to hear of what Dudu had to go through! Poor baby! But he’s lucky to have you and your family to care for him and love him back to a healthy and happy life. My prayers are for you and Dudu’s speedy recovery. ❤
So happy dodo was found and is recovering.
Poor Dudu! Glad to hear that he’s on the mend. Take care of yourself during this time. Hugs from Detroit.
Poor little Dudu 😿. I'm glad he is recovering and doing better ❤. Sending him a big gentle hug and kiss atop his forehead. I'm sure you and your family are relieved he was able to get the care he needed 🤍
Poor Dudu! And poor you! Happy to see he is on the mend. Hopefully he'll be fully recovered soon. It's good that you can carry on with your art, it does help get us through stressful times.
I'm so sorry to hear you and Dudu have been through such trauma! I have a little dog, Cali who is just a year and a half old. She ate some Daisies and buttercups about 2 weeks ago and we thought she would die; she was extremely sick. I stayed up for several nights, crying and praying that she would be okay. I can only imagine how upset you were with poor Dudu in such a condition! I'm so glad Dudu is getting better and hope he will not have any lasting effects. Hugs to you and Dudu!❤❤❤❤
Glad your kitty is on the mend!!🙏❤️Your sketches/ watercolors are fabulous!!!
Oh Becky, I am SO sorry that DuDu and you had to go through that. I have 5 animals and they're all like my children. I understand the frantic worrying and stress completely. I will be praying for all of you. Maybe after this he can change to just an "inside cat"? 💞😻
I’m so happy Dudu is recovering well after his serious injuries. My thoughts and prayers are with you and Dudu’s continued recovery. I’m sorry you both had to go through this trauma.
Prayers for you and DuDu.
Poor Dudu, you must have been sick with worry. Glad to hear he's on the mend. He's lucky to have you to look after him.
Wow Becky, very stressful situation. Great video as always. Glad DuDu is on the mend.
So happy your beautiful kitty is healing. ❤
Patty-I pray that DuDu gets better soon. Animals become family members so quickly. Love your sketches. I love your sketch if DuDu. Shows your deep love for him.
Ahhh - poor kitty - sooo happy he is recovering now - thank you for the video- you make drawingvlook sooo easy!
Wow I’m so sorry that happened to Dudu, I’ve had pets that have been in emergency situations needing surgery and it’s so scary. I’m glad he was treated and is able to recover now. I care about you Becky!
My heart really go out to you and DuDu.I can't imagine how sad you must've been for the fast couple of weeks. But also I'm so relieved to hear that he's coming back to normal. Hold fast to him and keep your hopes high!♡
So sorry you had to go through such a bad experience. Glad DuDu is doing better. ❤
I’m praying for DuDu’s speedy recovery.🥰

U r a wonderful example of using art to help us thru difficult times. Please take care of urself during this time🍵💐🐈
Oh noo Dudu! ❤ he could also have been struck by a car with those kinds of injuries, unfortunately. He will take a long recovery time with not much moving around. Poor wee man. Take care. Cats are surprisingly resilient.
Oh Becky, I’m so sorry to hear of your Dudu’s recent injury! I absolutely love seeing your sketches including Dudu! I have 2 black cats and try so hard to draw them, without much success. You do a beautiful job and all your sketches make me happy! Can’t imagine how worried you’ve been! Best wishes to you! Keep you all in my prayers!!!
❤❤❤ prayers for du du 🙏
Get well soon Dudu!!!
Sending healing wishes to Dudu! Your sketching and painting is beautiful, and it helped you to stay calm, how wonderful is that!
So sorry to hear about Dudu, and I really hope he will recover fast ❤ Your orcid is soo beautiful! 😊
So sorry to hear about your cat. Glad he was found and is recovering. 💙
I had a cat with similar injuries after being struck by a car as I mentioned-I know your vet bills will be steep. Please accept this for his ongoing care. ❤
Thank you so much for your support, Nancy! ☺️❤️❤️❤️ I really appreciate it.
I am so sorry to hear about DuDu 🥹 .. That must've been so scary for you and your family not knowing where he was for so long. I think I would have gone crazy. 🥹Thank goodness he was found and able to be saved 🙏🏼.. It angers me that vets are sometimes so quick to tell pet parents to put them to sleep. That in itself is a sad situation. I'm glad you and your family were able to do something better for him♥. I pray that he fully heels and gets back to his happy self 🥰🥰🥰
Sorry to hear about DuDu's injuries. We live on a main Rd and have lost two cats due to their roaming onto the road. Our cat Luna is an indoor cat, I never thought I would keep a cat in all the time but it's better than the heartbreak of losing her. I hope Dudu gets better and stays closer to you. ❤
Love your videos and learnt a lot about sketching from you. Many prayers for Dudu and all the best wishes for him!
So glad DuDu is healing! Such a hard thing for all of you to see your sweet boy suffering. 😢 get well soon DuDu!
Oh, I’m so sorry for Dudu and you. That is scary! We have a cat too and I would be very worried and stressed too! It’s great that you used your art to support you. And beautiful painting sketches too! Hope you both recover your equilibrium day by day.
Get well soon DuDu❤
Sending Doo, you, and your family strength and love. So glad you found him and especially grateful that he's healing well. 💕
Thank you so much for sharing your good work . It is not easy concentrate when we are preoccupied with our loved ones. I am happy Things are better now and Dudu is recovered.
I did a double take when I saw the Island Farms milk carton in the thumbnail and then immediately clicked on it as I figure you must be a fellow Islander or local to the area! Love your sketchbook style!
❤Best Wishes❤
OMG Becky, I'm so sorry and so happy you have a happy ending. I just rescued a cat and before I rescued it I was so worried about it getting hurt. God Bless you Becky and many prayers for a full recovery for Doo Doo!
oh gosh I hope kitty recovers perfectly 😮❤
Oh, how scary. I hope Du Du gains a full recovery. (Maybe he should become an indoor cat (?) submitted with respect and care for the well-being of all of you.) 🙂
Speedy recovery sweet Dudu!!!! Glad to hear you are eating, drinking and continuing to gain strength. I love that you are peacefully sleeping. Wish I could pet you…..
Becky, thanks for sharing your experience and how you are coping. Having kids can be so hard……… hang in there.
Thank you so much for your support, Rowena! ☺️❤️
Oh Becky, so sorry to hear what happened to Du Du , but glad hes recovering well, it must have been so awful for you all xx
So happy Dudu is feeling all the love of your family, the best medicine. 💕
Sending love and hugs. X
