These are the first artworks I have created during the pandemic. I did them early on, and they soldier on
for what lay ahead: Warrior ants with the printed patterns and coloration of endangered cats. Here I am
using fantasy to lighten up a serious situation. I was limited to using materials that I had available to me
already.
As the pandemic became more serious and frightening, I moved on to paintings.
