Calgary-area visual artist @debbie.leemiszaniec_artist started a COVID-19 sketchbook and has been sharing her work online.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ “The response has been enthusiastic, people are finding the drawings entertaining and thoughtful,” said Miszaniec. “I don’t normally show my drawings, so the COVID-19 drawings are unique for me in that way.”⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ So far she has done eight drawings in this series and she is currently working on more. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ “I continue to try to finish them daily as they seem to be something people look forward to seeing each day,” said Miszaniec.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ “The drawings were initially just for me, as a way to process what is happening in the world, and how unprecedented the changes are even in comparison to having lived through the global reaction to 911 and the economic meltdown in 2008."⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Share with us your personal good news stories, talents or how you're keeping busy during these unprecedented times.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Email calgaryphotos@cbc.ca or tag @cbccalgary⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Visit the LINK IN BIO to learn more.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 📸: onelifefineart.com⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #yyc #albertacares #cbccalgary #yycnow #yycliving #albertacares #inthistogether #covid19

Calgary-area visual artist @debbie.leemiszaniec_artist is back with new drawings from her COVID-19 sketchbook.⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⁠⠀⁠⠀ “I am doing three per week now while I concentrate on putting a campaign together for individual prints and a booklet of the original sketchbook,” said Miszaniec. “I’ve also set up a page on my website for this project called COVID-19 chronicles.”⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The sketches were initially created as a way for Miszaniec to process what is happening in the world.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ “People are entertained by them. I guess they are concerned about all the same things that I’m working through in my sketchbook. I will most likely have another eight by next weekend.”⁠⠀ ⁠⠀⁠⠀ Social distancing doesn't need to be lonely.⁠⠀ Share with us your personal good news stories, talents and photos.⁠ Let us know how you're keeping busy during these unprecedented times.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀⁠⠀ Email calgaryphotos@cbc.ca or tag @cbccalgary⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⁠⠀⁠⠀ Visit the LINK IN BIO to learn more.⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⁠⠀⁠⠀ 📸: onelifefineart.com⁠⠀⁠⠀ ⁠⠀⁠⠀ #yyc #albertacares #cbccalgary #yycnow #yycliving #albertacares #inthistogether #covid19

I’m honored to participate in @sensationalcakesandmore “Gratitude Collaboration”. I took inspiration from @debbie.leemiszaniec_artist amazing series of drawing which depict everyday life. What I loved about her work is the ever present Covid-19 virus. Haunting, beautiful and thoughtful. I am grateful to the delivery people who kept us going while we were grounded. Thank you! The Gratitude Collaboration, like gratitude, is on going!

Calgary-area visual artist @debbie.leemiszaniec_artist returns with some of the final drawings from her COVID-19 sketchbook.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ “The concepts I’m exploring are sometimes more complicated, and more emotional as I respond to different aspects of the pandemic. I usually work on them at night. I think they serve as a clearing house before sleep for everything I’ve been working through during the day,” said Miszaniec.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The series is winding down as she explores what is next.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ “I’ve done 34 now, I’m thinking I’ll do another four to complete a second set and then decide where I’ll go from there. I may decide to explore the effects of the pandemic on our society in some more extended works as the pandemic goes from a swiftly changing situation to the new normal in our lives.” ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Overall she feels pretty positive about the project.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ “It has put me in touch with a lot of great people who were touched by the work, and provided new opportunities that replaced exposure and income lost due to COVID-19.”⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The pandemic has also changed her outlook.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ “I’d say that COVID-19 has taught me the value of connecting with people, being flexible and making room to respond to new circumstances as an artist." ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Share with us how you are staying busy and positive.
