Visiting the Eric Carl Museum made a big impression on me. Le Uyen Pham’s “Outside”, “Inside” particular became striking to me. This painting reminds me of how I spent my period with Lockdown and Covid. My apartment has a small balcony with an iron staircase attached in case of an emergency. I crawled out the window onto this balcony (usually, you can’t use it) and sat there almost all day. I was looking at a street that was absolutely empty and silent. Only one elderly couple was walking and my fun was watching them too. From such an active street, only the doomed sound of emergency vehicles could be heard constantly. And I thank God that I could still breathe fresh air and see the outside world, albeit from a small balcony and even a quiet and empty street. For me, the painting by artist Le Uyen Pham came closest to the theme of Lockdown. So, I want to draw a girl siting on a small bench on a small balcony and watching an elderly couple. Only a ball pen was used to create this drawing.
