"In March 2020 lockdown was
announced in the UK.
Like everyone else, I started working from home. Using the kitchen table, as opposed to my usual studio, forced me to paint much smaller; dusty pastels were replaced with acrylic paint and watercolours, and from day one I painted every single day.
In the beginning I was diligent about trying to chronicle the days, but then the days turned into weeks before stretching into months, until eventually I lost track of time altogether and just settled into my own little routine.
This personal journal is not intended as a commentary of anything other than my own emotions and thoughts during this weird period, however I hope most people will relate to parts, if not all of it.
This book is a visual chronicle of my own journey through these very strange times." Mackenzie Thorpe
