Social Isolation Amongst the Forsythias

Social isolation is an obvious subject these days. As I write, I am on day 25 of social isolation. I feel especially sorry for the extroverts, and have sometimes thought that the situation is easier for me, who, even in normal times is somewhat socially isolated. But I miss people! Remember places? I miss places!!! Maybe we will appreciate everything more when this is all over.

I found this a hard painting to complete, despite the familiar subject matter. Just focusing can be difficult when there is low level anxiety going on. Somehow my brushes all seem crappy, too, even though they were the same ones I was using before! But, in the interests of normalcy, I am calling this done and posting it so I can move forward. Stay safe, everyone!!!

  1. I heard that this social isolating is harder for introverts, because their old excuses for avoiding people don’t work, and they have to think of whole new ones for the internet interconnected age.

  2. You are an amazing inspiration to many. I look forward to reading and seeing your posts everyday. I often read them over from the start.
