Sidewalk Art /
The weather was so nice today that I decided to create something beautiful to inspire passers-by in my neighborhood. It is a copy of Michelangelo’s “The Creation of Adam” that highlights the impact that this novel coronavirus is having on our lives today, three weeks into the quarantine.
Update: There was an article about it the following day!
30 paintings, 30 days /
