I’ve been dealing with a tore muscle for the past two weeks. Don’t know how it happened. For the first few days, I wasn’t able to do much of anything. I had to even call out of work. The only thing I was able to do a lot of is sketch and paint. It sounds ironic since my arm is messed up but thank goodness it’s my right arm that’s bad; my dominant left hand is doing well and has gotten me through so much.

Lately, I have been trying to get back into food photography. I haven’t been as active with my camera as I used to be which is unfortunate; I should change that.

But it’s…
Staying home for long periods of time can stir up feelings of boredom. After a few days you may think there is nothing left to do cause you’ve done it all. But it’s quite the contrary. There are plenty of things to do while home. I recently started sketching again to pass the time. I’m no pro at it so there is a lot of room for error and improvement. The same goes for any other new activity one may take up. If you can chop up your day into categories, you’ll realize there’s a lot you can do in…
