Watercolor painting of Bison exploring the empty beach on Catalina Island during the quarantine.
The Quarantine was such a strange time. Each day I walked my dog for miles in the quiet streets of the edge of Boston. Throughout the rest of the world, as we retreated, animals began to take back some of our “human” spaces. In addition, some people brought animals to explore places that were off limits to us. These bison were exploring areas that would otherwise be filled with people. This “anthropause” as the Quarantine is also called, inspired me to paint the animals. They took over neighborhoods, streets, and our beaches.
