I passed time during quarantine in March and April 2020 by painting this entire Paint By Numbers canvas. I am not very gifted when it comes to art and it was a very tedious activity, but this painting activity allowed me to take my mind off of the uncertainties of the world and relieve stress related to the COVID-19 pandemic without having to leave the comfort of my own bedroom. With classes being switched to fully online in March of last year, I had a lot of extra free time and worked on parts of this painting almost every day until it was finished about a month and a half later.
