The Bluest Eye. "The Bluest Eye, published in 1970, is the first novel written by Toni Morrison. The novel takes place in Lorain, Ohio, and tells the story of a young African-American girl named Pecola who grew up following the Great Depression."

Siddhartha. “Siddhartha: An Indian Poem is a 1922 novel by Hermann Hesse that deals with the spiritual journey of self-discovery of a man named Siddhartha during the time of the Gautama Buddha. The book, Hesse's 9th novel, was written in German, in a simple, lyrical style."

This pandemic has taken a toll on me creatively. I think creativity itself, can help us build and get through this, but it is very difficult. It's difficult not knowing the impact this situation is having on my family and friends. I think for some of us, this is a moment to reassess who and what is important, catch up on home projects and spend time with loved ones. I'm trying to maintain a healthy mindset during this time, exercise, eat healthy, limit social media and catch up on some art projects to name a few.
