Pandemic

Strange times, indeed.
I pretty much stay home most of the time and hook so not much has changed for me in terms of my lifestyle...but galleries are closing, exhibits postponed ...so there is that.

Also,

I worry about my Mom and sister and the health care workers.
I worry when my kids will go back to school.
I worry about the people losing their jobs.
I worry about the homeless.
I worry about seniors.

But all I can do is hook....and continue to spray everything with a 10% solution of  bleach.

Hang in there people...this too shall pass.

World Events

I hooked this rug last year.

I was just being silly.

It was a year or two ago that a  Maud Lewis exhibit was held in China, along with a few other NS artists and it struck me as Maud had never been out of the province and  her artwork being shown so far from her home......if she were alive today imagine how she would feel.

So I hooked up her three cats..with masks to protect against the pollution...and the Chinese flag in the background.

Now when I look at this rug, all I can think of is the coronavirus.

World events can bring a new meaning to art.

Take care of each other.
