This is one in a series of posts showcasing work made by students in the League’s online classes.
We have now been in quarantine for twelve months. In the last year, the League has grown in numbers, and our artistic voice as a school has evolved.
We started working with Special Guest Star Fran O’Neill when she visited us in February 2020, and Fran was one of our first distant online instructors when we went into quarantine. Having just moved from New York, she joined us from Australia.
This is one of a series of posts showcasing artwork produced through this pandemic: our one year anniversary of online classes. Throughout this terrible year, we have shared some beautiful moments.

I don’t always have the patience to sit down and draw from observation, but whenever I can manage to glue my butt to the chair I am rewarded with an increase in appreciation for the world around me.
