(
Insomnia post warning) My roommate asked me to describe the coronavirus to her so she could draw it (didn’t ask why). I used an iPhone app I had open to quickly sketch up a coronavirus example. This is what I came up with:
Having way too much free time on my [frequently washed] hands lately, I looked at the sketch and decided it might be more interesting if I edited it into a kind of Warhol-styled print:
I tweaked and edited that version for a bit and realized I still had nothing to do and nowhere to be, so I decided to build upon those edits:
I even broke out some old novelty apps I haven’t used in years:
A couple hours later, I had created a sizeable digital stockpile of coronaviruses of varying colors, sizes, and styles. They are now tucked away in my private collection of things that will likely never be published (with these exceptions of course).
I know I’m no Warhol or even much of an artist, but I couldn’t sleep and wanted to share and break up the monotony and the boredom of my quarantined life for a moment.
Cheers, DA
