This series came to life spontaneously during the first year of the Covid pandemic, while sheltering in place in San Francisco and spending long hours and days on end in the studio. It grew to 14 paintings that were created side by side, tracing the different moods and energy, inside and out, of that tumultuous period of time. In 2024, I revisited and revised many of the paintings in the series, usually brightening them and painting over a lot of the graphite gray that had permeated the work during the first pass. The photos here include those that were reworked and those that stayed the same.
