I Is For Ibis

As much as I love Gary Numan's music, it's refreshing to step away from the gloom, especially with Kazuko and, possibly, Arthur succumbing to Influenza for the second time in two weeks. Just a couple of weeks ago, Kazuko, Valerie and Arthur had Influenza B. Yesterday, Kazuko was diagnosed with Influenza A and I have just returned home from work to find Arthur has a fever. He will see the doctor tomorrow for a diagnosis. This weekend I suffered from a dreadful cold and I needed to take Monday off work. Luckily I don't have Influenza. So, as a much needed pick-me-up, here is the ibis I painted a couple of weeks ago.
