As we are (hopefully) approaching the end of the pandemic, spring is in full bloom and the mood is more optimistic. While my sourdough baking days are over, I am still "baking" a new drawing each day. Since the start of the pandemic, drawing has been a great way to deal with stress. As a silver lining, I've rediscovered drawing again. After a long day of endless zoom meetings, it's refreshing to work on a small creative project.

I get inspired by literally anything: a toilet paper roll, talking to friends and family, online shopping, scrolling Facebook, or when reading the news. My original series was "before and after" focused on how our lives have changed during the pandemic, but since then, I've explored a few additional concepts. One new theme I've been excited about is inanimate objects that can talk to each other, for example, what if a face mask could complain to a toilet paper roll about its job? Or what would a chair say to a butt? I found that these objects are perfect metaphors for daily life (or maybe I am losing it from being in the lockdown for too long.) I also like drawing silly charts and puns.

I hope you enjoy this freshly baked batch of drawings! Previous posts: Part 1Part  2Part  3Part  4, Part 5, and Part 6

    The toilet papers job still sucks more. Other than getting mouth mist, the toilet paper deals with some real poop.

    People my age have a visible scar on our arms from the small pox vax. it is a cool reminder that we are safe. Maybe a visual thing like that would help be a passport in the future for this vax?

    Yes. Those of us who have been doing the right thing, and therefore the heavy lifting, this whole time, and have now taken the vaccine, should be able to reap the rewards. If you want in, you can STILL jump the line and take the vaccine and get back to life. If not, it's your right to sit outside in the goddamn parking lot. Buh bye.

    There have always been certain shots required to travel out of the country. How is the Covid vaccine different? Not to mention enrolling in school, joining the military.
