Happy weekend!

Zoom sisters

IPad Drawing 

8 x 10 inches 

Barbara Muir ©️ 2020

I found this drawing today on my iPad from last July. At that point I think I’d taught three courses in a row, once a week online. The transition from live classroom to online was awkward for sure. But by July and the end of the last summer course I was teaching on Zoom, it was almost normal.

This drawing is about the reality of  Zoom – people talking on opposite sides of the world, getting to see one another, but only seeing part of the picture. I did the drawing on my iPad with my finger, and that makes me quite proud. I seem to be always learning about technology, a complete necessity  in the current world.

All things  considered I am so grateful for the technology that is keeping us connected.

Have a loving your weekend day.

Great drawing! Using a finger is great I think and difficult to get to detailed which for me is a good thing!
Happy Easter weekend❣️🤗

Hi Evelyn,

You’re right. It’s fun for that exact reason. And it works better on my old iPad.

Thank you. Your comments make my day!
