This was an un-exciting week except for yesterday, when I went to Mahoney’s with my sister Isi and her girlfriend Sym, who are both living with us, to get plants for the vegetable garden. This article by comparative immunologist and bio professor Erin Bromage about the relative risk of infection in different situations was useful…
My phrase for this week has been “Time is fake.” It sure does feel that way. I’ve seen a lot of people posting that March felt like it lasted much more than a month and April felt like it lasted much less. That’s been my experience too. I did not take a lot of pictures…
My family and I have been staying home/away from others except for the rare grocery trip, to keep ourselves from being exposed to the COVID-19 virus and help flatten the curve. I’ve been doing a bunch of things to pass time. I made a t-shirt design. It’s also available as a tote bag, mug, a…

That didn’t work out, but I wound up with some nice landscapes. Click the thumbnails for a better view….

Here’s PNDP assignment #8: to shoot 6 pictures of highways and 6 pictures of the woods. I chose to do graphically matched pairs of photos to compare the two settings. Some of the parallels are obvious; others, less so. I’d love to hear what you think about it. For this assignment, I wanted to draw…
