Covid Response

My art represents the ominous feeling put out by the virus. Corona has this weird feeling about it. It's almost as if it's doing exactly what it's doing in the picture. It's like it has the earth on puppet strings. It's scary. That's what this art is meant to show. How ominous and scary the rona really is. This project relates to my life, along with everyone else on earth right now. We really are all in this together. The corona is like a monster we all have to fight. We won't get out of this without a few scratches but we will get through this. This relates to our lives because this is the reality that we live in. This work was made by using a combination of felt tipped crayola markers, copic markers, sharpies, pencils, and regular printer paper. To come up with this idea I basically just thought about how the virus has been affecting the earth. I then came across an image of thanos peering over the curvature of the earth and I just replaced thanos with the rona. Originally I was thinking about trying to draw the rona as if it was some kind of serial killer but then I came up with this idea. I liked to portray the rona as almost this intergalactic beast that was preying on earth. I think my next steps will be to create more rona inspired work. I really like the idea and this was really fun to create.
