Sketching The Lockdown Away

CG. How have you handled the lockdown? How you managed to stay inspired despite being forced to stay at home?

But as the pandemic intensified and only the essentials were delivered, I started witnessing a slowdown in my work. I seldom remember a day in the last 10-15 years that I did not have work at hand, but during the lockdown, the amount of work has gone down.
