Here we are…

Weeks deep in the global pandemic trying to find our way forward. I have no idea how or when we will finally be saying “remember during the pandemic” to each other.

Uncertainty is the truth of our human existence but it’s also incredibly uncomfortable. It feels especially surreal with spring blooming all about. It’s a strange mix of admiration for the beauty of nature and running on high alert to our vulnerability to it.

For a million reasons I haven’t been able to settle my jangled nerves enough to focus on oil paint. I’ve been distracting myself with making elaborate doodles. They are a bit of mixed media madness and definitely show my illustration roots. They are surprisingly amusing considering our current circumstances but this gives me some relief and I hope they do for you too!

Be well!

Let everything happen to you
Beauty and terror
Just keep going
No feeling is final
