Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art Date's 'Farm Life' theme.
I painted some sheep based on a photo my brother took in Tierra Del Fuego in Argentina. He was at the Sur 54 Hotel there and saw these sheep grazing outside his hotel room.
Had some bad news this week that a very good friend has lung cancer. The prognosis is good as she caught it early and the surgery has been done. Still, it is upsetting. Another friend told me she heard the meds cost $9,000 per month, hopefully one has added medical insurance.

wow, 9,000 a month... some company is making a lot of money. Sorry to hear about your friend but good they caught it early. Sorry, to rant, but what a crime to charge that much money.
On a happier note your sketch is really cute. That trip to Argentina must have been really nice.
So sorry to hear about your friend having lung cancer. It's a tough cancer to deal with. Hope everything is okay.
Beautiful painting. Sorry about your friend, all the best for her. Hugs, Valerie
Beautiful sheep in a green meadow.
Oh my, that kind of news is definitely unsettling. I love the green with the white sheep!

And I'm so sorry to hear about your friend. I wish her a full recovery.

So sorry to hear of your friend. I hope she continues to improve.
The cost of drugs is inexcusable. I hate it when the profit margin outweighs life.
Love that.....I love farm critters too.
Really sorry to read about your friend Christine. So many in the UK moan about our NHS but do not realise how lucky we are to get health care for free. Holding hope in our hearts for your friend.
Love your sheep sketch the green grass and fencing adds so much to the design. Take care Tracey x
Nice sheep. I like this one. But sorry to hear about your friend. There are great drugs out there, but you have to be able to afford them. That's a huge bill each month. hugs-Erika
Tracey Canada also has a national healthcare system but not all meds are covered and you need additional health insurance to supplement things like type of hospital room too.
Lindas ovejas y espero que tu amigo este bien. Te mando un beso.
How sad for your friend, Christine. It's incredibly sad when we have to choose between medicine and food.
Your sheep are wonderful. I like that they are South American sheep (grin)!
...I didn't sleep well last night, I counted more than three sheep!
Love this ~ sweet critters ~ Xo

I do like your sketch, but, was sorry to read about your friend, sending healing thoughts and wishes.
All the best Jan
oops, that´s a lot 0f money. :( I hope she heals very quickly.
costs that high make me glad of the NHS
Love your painting ... I saw sheep, cows and even donkeys grazing out in the open all over Switzerland. Don't know what kept them from wondering off, but maybe they knew where they were safe. Sorry about your friend. Lung Cancer is seldom easy to cure so she is blessed that she discovered it early. $9,000/month is mind boggling ... yes, I sure hope she has good insurance. But, really ... that is an outrageous amount to expect anybody to pay especially since she could probably go to Canada or any other country and get it for MUCH less. Greed is a cruel thing. Stay well, Christine ...
