There is an emotion for the need to create art •

I deviated from my plan of virtual isolation.

When you are an artist, boredom is truly a killer. And so during this time of social isolation, I find myself unsatisfied with YouTube and scrolling through social media feeds. I need something to do. And so, while I may not post as often, for the sake of my own emotional health, I will not stop altogether. •
