Here goes 2020

Well, here goes 2020. Faster than expected. But then, almost nothing did go as expected this year.

It was a tumultuous year on all levels for all of us, with endless uncertainties and changes and everyone had their own personal experience with this crisis.

Mine brought several good things: I had a lot of time for painting and sold several paintings through Art-Shows, the galleries and by commission. My bread baking skills are now decent. Home office became a normal thing. People rediscovered walks and I discovered that there are Porcinis growing in New Zealand! My partner and I travelled the beautiful Northland. Later this year my second niece was born, a little sunshine addition to the family in this part of the world.

Since the first lockdown in April we came a long way and can lead a relatively normal live within our ‘Bubble’ New Zealand. Borders are closed and only open for essential workers, citizens and residents.

I dearly hope that ‘normal’ will spread around the globe again so we can see and wrap our arms around our family and friends overseas soon.

Happy New Year 2021!
