Adam Stone

a beautiful friendship...

Age 22. 2009.

To some, the boy knew, it may have been a small departure from a lovable feline, but to him, Morris’ death was heartbreaking. There had been many times in the past where the boy had hurried home and hid away in his bedroom, hoping desperately to be forgotten by the world. He had wept in the isolated darkness, crying out his pain, yet Morris had always comforted him; lying there lovingly without judgmental eyes. Morris was always there offering his console by silently listening to every last word.

With a tear in his eye the boy could remember what it felt like to cradle his arms around the little one, feeling his cushion-like fur on his skin. The boy knew he would one day be with him again, but for now, he could only hope he would see him in his dreams

- Drawn on white bristol board. 2H, 3B pencil, biro pen, water colours and digital paint.

    A very touching piece Adz; a story about their struggles through life’s harshness… one cat and a boy… Both alone in the world, but at least they have each other… and together they find that little things matter…

    The boy will not only see Morris in his dreams, but Morris will come alive as that boys dreams get bigger, as his future shines brighter… Morris will touch people’s lives just as he has touched mine.

    So glad to see this coming to life Adz. Cheers, and good night…
