Teapot (Oct 24, 2010)

Some of you may know a Dutch artist who used the name "Inevergiveup". She died on October 21st. I will miss her. She was a lovely person. There is a quote on her funeral announcement:

One dies twice, I realize
To cease to please and be lovable
Is an unbearable death.
To cease to be alive is easy.

Voltaire

Tess loved violin concertos, this one especially.

Ooh, Teapot....my eyes are filled. She was a wonderful person who suffered a long battle, bravely. I have a sweet painting she did for me of a summer hammock...I look at it and think of her. Farewell, Tess, I will miss you, too. :`(

What? Why, how...

Teapot (Jan 3, 2011)

Enjoydotcom, you can read about Tess' illness here, on the first picture posted . She posted a picture and a poem and explained about having Meniere's Disease. She decided to end her life at the age of 52 after suffering unimaginably for more than 10 years with it. You can also see a collection of some of her work in the Upload Studio at that site.

That is just so sad... didn't know about her, but her gallery hosts some nice stuff. She left earth too soon, but I can understand her decision.
