a rendition of Norman Rockwell's "Freedom from Want" which is a traditional thanksgiving art piece, staring down the table at a large family gathered. in this version, the woman at the head of the table is masked. The man serving the turkey is not. The rest of the family is not. The rest of the family is metaphorically flame with purple flames and virus particles filling the indoor room where they dine.

“Freedom from Safety”

I was inspired by The Disabled Ginger’s post of Violet Affleck (masked) working with her parents (unmasked) to serve thanksgiving, while wearing other public health precautions (hair nets). This one goes out to all the single maskers in your family, community, life. You’re not alone, even if it feels that way.

TBH I don’t love how this turned out, but my skill is a lot more in nature and semi-abstract than realism, so I hope it gets the point across.
