I hope you all had, and are having, a good Thanksgiving day and weekend, despite everything being different this year. We still have much to be thankful for if we just stop to think about it.
I have done very little creatively in the last few weeks. I just have not been wanting to do anything creative, or otherwise. Just too much sickness, sadness, and chaos going on around all of us, on top of the holiday season now upon us. It gets overwhelming at times.
My husband and I have been staying at home as much as possible since March, and we wear masks and try to be careful when we do have to go out, and so far we have avoided Covid 19. But who knows what minute that can change. Some of our family and friends have not been so lucky. It's spreading so fast and getting worse by the day. We didn't get together as a family for Thanksgiving this year, and probably won't for Christmas either, since they're predicting that cases will surge again in a couple of weeks from Thanksgiving travel and gatherings. We are both in our seventies with diabetes and other health problems, and I have breathing problems, so it's a bit scary for us, as well as many of you.
Anyway, I have half-heartedly tried to work on a few things. Most of the time, doing quirky doodles will get me going, but not this time. Nor did looking back through my previous art journals. I managed to do these three doodles one evening with just a regular plain pencil...
