Covid Changed Our Landscape
Covid Changed Our Landscape. In the years since I returned to art, I have been experimenting with different methods of creating my paintings. I have thrown paint; I have finger painted and I've used brush work during COVID. I came upon integrating all three of those styles into one set of landscapes. And those are the landscapes that this heart is created using. During the spring of 2020, my creativity was completely blocked. By working with the colors, I unblocked my ability to create, and I'm hoping some of that comes across in these hearts to help other people feel the heart, the energy, and the excitement and creativity of what is ahead of us instead of just what's behind us.
