The school year has ended so I finally had some time to create some of my own personal work.

My wife and I have been keeping to our home for the past few months. It's dull but we are keeping busy. She's picked up knitting and I've been catching up on some video games. We both would like to get out but, it doesn't seem like things are getting better any time soon.

For this piece, I'm pushing my composition techniques. Most of my compositions before have been relatively flat and simple. When creating "Social Distancing" I thought about the paintings of Degas and Cassatt. I used overlapping and converging lines to create depth. Im carefully choosing my colors to subtely suggest light. Finally there's the point of view of looking through the window, my wife looking back at you, to make a spontaneous and intimate moment.

On top of these classic techniques, I brought my skills in collage: disjointed perspective, expressionistic figures, and a bold color palette.
