NATIONAL HEADLINES 17 DECEMBER 2020 |

Tyee readers, you are a creative bunch! Last month we asked you to submit portraits of the people, pets and other things in your bubbles, and boy did you deliver. We received subtle and sensitive renderings to hilarious images of what the most recent shutdown has wrought on mind and body. Cats, dogs, family members, booze, toothbrushes and surrounding environs all made a good showing — even a trip to the COVID-19 testing centre. Many thanks to everyone who participated. Consider the selection an early Christmas present, and if it inspires you and other Tyee readers to greater acts of creativity and drawing splendiferousness, all the better. Check out the full gallery bellow. |
