As soon as I saw that "old man" was on the prompt list, I knew I wanted to draw my dad and Micah. My dad described Micah as his best old bud; Micah passed away four days before my dad got his cancer diagnosis. While my dad was still alive, it felt like Micah was still with us, lying in front of the door to the back porch. Both mom and I would carefully open it like always, only to be reminded that he was no longer there. After my dad passed a little over two months later, that feeling went away.

I like to think they're together again, free from the tired bodies that weighed them down, exploring the nature they both loved so much.

Uh, also, the rest of the month isn't going to be as intense as this one, haha, there's no way I can be this detailed on a daily basis.
