human connection is a vital part of life for me, and losing it during the COVID-19 pandemic has been incredibly isolating.
as an experiment in staying in touch, i set up zoom calls with friends, neighbors, and strangers in which i sketch their portrait. i post each drawing and an excerpt of our conversation here @thespacebetweenyouandme in hopes that we can all feel a sense of re-connection during this very strange time.
