The Positive Impact of Lockdown

Many of us will confess that although we miss all the social things we used to do, living in isolation has been a peaceful and productive period in our

lives.

As an artist I saw an opportunity in this and started expressing my feelings on canvas. I was inspired to create and these unprecedented times did bring out the best in me. The artist in me was at her creative best And I couldn’t ask for more. I was inspired and how. I did see many of my friends try their hand at cooking, poetry, writing, singing et al. Many of us discovered facets of our personalities and creativity which we didn’t know

existed.

The lockdown taught us to slow down and reflect, it taught us to unravel our hidden traits and have a new perspective on a lot of things that we otherwise took for granted. There was a newfound joy in what we used to do as children in the seventies and eighties. Just being at home with family, doing nothing was not so bad after all. It was an activity most of us are doing during the lockdown and quite enjoying it.
