The Corona Chronicles

Written By Eleaca Young

My artist friend Lorraine Bell was posting these beautiful journal spreads that documented this time in the world. She asked me to collaborate with her and post about how this epidemic was impacting my world. She lives in Florida and I live here in Alaska. Guess what? So far it has been a lot of the same thing. We are concerned about our neighbors, the world and our families. We are staying home creating and avoiding crowds.

Creating a journal a day has been good to get the anxiety, gratitude and fear out of my head. Just keeping it real. Very real. You can follow along using the hashtag #coronachronicles on Instagram. And you can join in and document for yourself and post if you would like. We would love to see what you are creating.

Creativity has always been a large part of my life. I believe that everyone is a creative, some people just have not discovered their passion yet. My goal is to share the message, “Go Forth and Create!”

Mixed media is my love. I thrive on the freedom of working in any medium I want and combining watercolor, ink, acrylics, fabrics-everything is fair game.

Living in Alaska, I am surrounded by beauty. I find the scenery and the people equally inspiring. the world is endlessly providing inspiration and my mission is to take full advantage. My favorites include color, nature, family, books, people and so much more.
