Photo of a roll of paper towels, roll of toilet paper, hand sanitizer, gloves, and a face mask
Frank Roth, Waldorf, “Invaluable Treasure” – A selection of items that until a few months ag we took fro granted and we alway thought would be easily available. Covid19 has made these simple items an invaluable treasure.
a woman sits on the grass with a cat, Now is the purr-fect time to spend time with a friend
Sara Cooper, Aquasco, “TIme Shared” – Due to the pandemic, everyone is required to stay at home. Take this time to go outside to relax, enjoy nature, and spend some time with a friend.
Image of a whale's tail breaking through water
Bernard Matus, Leonardtown, “Humpback Diving” – On an Earth Watch trip to Hawaii. I recorded this image of a Humpback whale diving. My wife and I were part of a team recording images of these whales in the ocean .
origami knives, a sword, and a trident made of white folded paper
Joseph Grossman, Leonardtown, “Origami Weapons” – Joe, age 13, made assorted origami folded paper weapons: knives, sheath, spear and trident. He taught himself how from videos online.
a teddy bear and a maryland flag in a store window
Wednesday Davis, Leonardtown, “Going on a Bear Hunt in Leonardtown” – Leonardtown businesses placed teddy bears in their windows, despite many of the shops being closed the merchants wanted to pass on some happiness for the people who walked by during their exercise and walks. This window was at Fenwick St. Used Books & Music, store fronts are also decorated with hearts, spring themes, and kind words of encouragement.
acrylic painting of a building and a boat with trees in the background
Aicy Karbstein, Leonardtown, “Boats at Leonardtown Wharf” – I painted this scene during the lockdown, hoping that the day would come soon when we enjoy the beautiful outdoors once again. A beautiful day for enjoying nature by the water. This scene takes place on Breton Bay, at the Leonardtown Wharf in Saint May’s County, Maryland, USA, where boats can dock and people can appreciate being alive, taking in the fresh air, looking at the trees and water, and hearing the sound of the birds singing to their own special tune! Painting is acrylics on canvas, 8″x10″.
