IN THAT RIDICULOUS ANKLE LENGTH PUFFY DOWN TRENCH COAT AGAINST THE ENDLESS CHICAGO WINTER AND STILL CANNOT GET WARM.
— At the St. Patrick’s Day parade on Michigan Avenue.
By Leo Rising, I mean myself. A teenager living in Chicago and always cold.
These small, original portraits are painted on top pages cut and upcycled from my sketchbooks.
This portrait is from the series, 100 Portraits in 100 Days: A Quarantine Diary.
What began as a creative challenge to focus my energies during the first weeks of solo quarantine in March 2020, evolved into a diary of my experience.
