He died in 2019 from Alzheimer’s. <br/><br/>This is my first mixed media artwork in 2017 when we realized how bad he was mentally deteriorating. <br/><br/>He was born in Austria and came to Canada with his family. He learned English and entered high school. <br/><br/>His first degree was in mechanical engineering. Thanks to a graduate project with an ophthalmologist, he decided he wanted to work more with people. So he completed medical school and specialized in eyeballs.<br/><br/>Not wanting to work in a socialist medical system, he moved his family to Texas. Initially practicing ophthalmology with a partner, he eventually opened his own clinic. He also founded a small engineering company which produced the two different ophthalmic instruments he designed and patented to measure the curvature of the eye, a necessary measurement for certain types of surgery. <br/><br/>Eventually he retired and moved back to Canada with my mom into an older house by a lake, where he enjoyed renovating the place and sailing. <br/><br/>He was a great dad and I still miss him. ❤️<br/><br/> <img src="https://i.nostr.build/IW7ckPSntccir22Z.jpg"> 2026-03-31T04:17:12+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqste8l5ph5tpg3nk2rqw4dj6weuj0tl7thunmuml8vthkuhhcuvq9gzyzf4d5qg4v3x4d4s32euwwgq234jsdky336j0u89xvkqjgq68ekusng34sg In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsr2u3g2w2v3fge7fryed9ccjaawc3h0mfmr5e0mf3d7qg4mfsrldspp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mq9pq9ad'>nevent1q…q9ad</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Thank You for all you build and maintain! 💜 2026-03-28T01:27:20+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsgktc5l9u9rsjhw0cwf9yupgsl04m2r0vv3puasun7mj5wufvvvzszyzf4d5qg4v3x4d4s32euwwgq234jsdky336j0u89xvkqjgq68ekussjk7ca In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsga3z796zc8sf73ltum9rwz3kgt6vzs8pddm9s46v6ym46wm4y44spp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqz3369j'>nevent1q…369j</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Thanks, I have that on.

Except it sat unfinished on my art desk for weeks… which meant something about it still bothered me. 🤔<br/><br/>So instead of separating the flower drawing squares, I put them edge to edge. Suddenly it was closer to the quilt concept I wanted than any of my other attempts, so I leaned into that, adding alternating greens to the flowers with Copic markers and a thin black border. <br/><br/>Studying the quilts the my mom has made, I still needed the “quilting” - the sewing that keeps the batting in place. Since drawing equidistant little lines was not appealing, I drew my pencil lines and then used I Micron pen to add the dots for the holes punctured through fabric (second photo🪡.) Love how it turned out! <br/><br/>As the May entry in my Calendar Animal series, the letters should have been laser-printed and gold-painted as on the previous 4 artworks. <br/><br/>But that didn’t fit this piece; I tried and the background is too dark to have the tissue paper blend in and it looked horrible and I scraped it off and was so relieved I hadn’t destroyed the underlayer. 😮‍💨<br/><br/>So this is when that “consistent” element changed. Still have the other elements I decided on before starting. I assumed some would fall to the side as my art developed and adapted to the monthly focal point and theme. That’s part of the fun of this project - seeing how much the last one resembles the first one. Or not. 🧑‍🎨<br/><br/>#2026calendarchallenge <br/>#artstr #art #artchallenge #mixedmedia #rustypuppyart<br/><br/> <img src="https://i.nostr.build/5Z1QXGMrz0yqPXwQ.jpg"> <br/> <img src="https://i.nostr.build/BDxOYtY4yHCp3OJ3.jpg"> 2026-03-26T04:33:54+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsqfg3yn6tfjgj4d2l0zzqgpv0ra8mf3kdy8t8zhvp7uw566938tagzyzf4d5qg4v3x4d4s32euwwgq234jsdky336j0u89xvkqjgq68ekus2jsc2e Bought 2 watercolor travel brush sets to play with before my trip.
