With the imminent threat of the Wuhan coronavirus and an unreliable government in controlling its infiltration to our city, I have extended the CNY holiday for another week. However, I did go back to the studio on Sat. to do some cleaning and to pack some stuff to work from home this coming week.

Decided to work from home mainly to safe on masks as there’s a major shortage of mask supplies in the city. Thousands of people lineup outside of drugstores everyday to buy masks, and many leaving empty handed frustratingly. There were even robberies of masks reported! I see the angry and helpless faces of people on the news and I can’t help asking how a bloody government can be so apathetic and merciless to its people?!

Facing this incoming epidemic, there’s really nothing I can do besides staying home to safe on masks and trying to stay healthy so as not to be a burden to an already stressed healthcare system. Have been taking the extra time to catchup on the Inktober52 challenge. Seems like I have an innate affinity to make art at times of stress and sadness. Plan to do more of that this week while strategizing on some major projects for 2020.

Oh God, please be merciful to our city and help us through this imminent epidemic threat. ??
