Original artwork description:

They say there are 5 stages of #grief -denial, anger, bargaining, depression, & acceptance... I say, there should be a 6'th - getting a #puppy :)

However, based on my own painful experience of grief, these are not stages at all. Instead, they are random responses to loss and despair. They come and go in no particular order.

“An awful leisure,” is how Emily Dickinson described the grief the living experience after the death of a loved one, and I realize now the main reason we got a puppy was to mitigate that awfulness. To be a high-spirited distraction, a joyful pain-in-the-neck, which he plainly is. Now, our leisure time is divided between doting on him and preventing him from chewing up every slippers, any form of clothing, even plants, and almost anything in our house.

This is the first time I used soft pastel pencils...I'm loving it ;)
