What’s most challenging for you in the current moment and what are your ideas on how to address these issues? 

My submission is my artwork called Reflective

Before the epidemic, I was always on the go. I could never stay in the house for to long without getting depressed. I was always a person who thrived on being social and starting new adventures with friends. 

One of the most challenging things for me during this epidemic, is keeping my spirits high and realizing that staying at home helps keep me and the people in my community safe. Some things I’ve done to keep me going is self care and self love, loving the little moments I spend in my company and with family. I have also picked up my passion for art again. As I’ve gotten older I neglected my creative talents to focus on work as well as school, but during this time I was able to create a piece that not only brings me joy but encouragement
