I hosted some of our pulm/crit fellows for dinner and painting (they didn't know they'd be forced to contribute to a communal canvas until they arrived), and the result was dark, chaotic, and cathartic. In my eyes, a perfect representation of the underlying unease as we move into 2025.

I started this piece during the height of the pandemic thinking on essential work. I'd start my commute into the MICU on an eerily empty CTA bus where I'd take my seat among the other HCWs and sit in socially-distanced silence.
