My first Blog post ever! Another thing that you discover during a pandemic, as you consequently have more time, is the fact your website has a Blog feature! I live in BC, Canada and we are currently heading into the second wave of COVID-19. Painting and creating art during a pandemic has had a lot of ups and downs. One definite “down” is the fact that I can no longer work at my job of teaching seniors art because of lockdown restrictions. I have for the past eight years worked at several senior retirement residences teaching art as well as teaching private lessons at home. I miss my them all very much. One if the “ups” is that I was able to have a show, just prior to the March lockdown, for my longest running art group the “Pacifica Never Too Late Art Group” at the Newton Cultural Center and after that at their home the Pacifica Retirement Residence. It was featured in the Surrey Leader Newspaper and was very well received!
