Covid Zoom Doodles

During the pandemic, work days blurred into endless Zoom calls— screens replacing real things.

I found myself doodling while listening—swirls, daisies, dots, and scribbles. Small sketches helped the monotony. Something tangible, something real in digital space.

This piece comes from the need to create, to escape the screen. The colors are deliberately earthy, in contrast to the glow of pixels. Each stitch is a reminder that it’s important to leave something behind—something made by hand.
