Description [Right now, this might be the single most striking painting Cathie's done so far. I hope the picture does it justice. --ed.]

Sometimes, life's like that, feeling as if you're passing through massive challenges, complete with other forces threatening to lead you off course, with just a glimpse of the light at the end of the tunnel.

Original Sumi-e. From Nov. 16, 2009. Sumi-ink and color on xuan.

Its the scale of the peice. It could be the size of the stamp and yet it feels immense. You can almost feel the looming strength of the stone looking down on you!
Would love to be able to create something like this.
