Valentween!

Vampira and Bela Lugosi

22″X 28″ poster board

Done in soft pastel chalk, Magic Marker and colored pencil.

Each year as Valentine’s Day approaches, the St. Petersburg art community hosts the Valentween art show with the theme always a mixture of Valentine love and Halloween spookiness.

This year’s theme is Vampires!

Pam decided to enter this year.   Rob is doing well and she has begun to take up her chalks again.  “Vampira and Bela Lugosi” was done these last few weeks in her spare time specifically for the show.  Love, lust and Halloween.

She will also enter a piece previously seen here when Rob got ill last summer.

Rob is doing quite well and after four rounds of chemo a complete scan could identify no living cancer cells.  He will have another scan in three months.  He had his first meeting with the prosthysis techies and will begin measurements as he has now been cleared by the wound care specialist.  His amputated leg has completely healed and he got to ring the bell.

They are getting around well, go to movies, see their amateur theater friends and shop.  Pam texted that they had a “romantic dinner” at a restaurant last week   She said it was so good to see him sitting opposite her across the table.  Rob is having little difficulty in getting around with a walker and is quite adept in his wheelchair.  Pam has returned to her art.

Life is beginning to settle into the new normalcy.

Please, no invitations for Thanksgiving this year.  Pam, Rob, Marie, Clark and I will be cruising to the Bahamas.

.Happier days will be here again.
