Drawing a poster for protests right now! Also filming the process, so hopefully there will be a video soon! I feel like I haven't drawn for ages, and it's kind of true in terms of this big format. Last time it was... in university, I guess? Almost ten years ago? Oh my god.
I still have no working place, we planned to go and look for it today but one of the persons I now live with doesn't come... well, I hope I will get a nice table soon. Now there's only a mattress and a big wardrobe in my room. I miss having a nice room filled with stuff I like and memories but now I don't think that spending lots of money on things for room is worth it. No one knows what will happen tomorrow and where I have to go next.
Good news: I've got a first Pfizer shot two days ago! Got almost no side effects, except that I wasn't able to move my hand for a day (now it's okay) and fell asleep for a few hours yesterday midday. But sad thing is that there was protests that day there they were burning Putin's dummy and I really wanted to go but I woke up and it was like... five minutes until start and the event was not even in the city. Ehh...
I also got a bank account here! Finally!! Still figuring out what and how I can do with it but i have at least something! It was hard to get, thanks god I found a few contracts with my work, because they ask for a lot of information. And I understand that, they don't want to make accounts for Russian thiefs, corruptioners and their relatives. If I was a bank I would check people that much as well.

Anyway... I'm doing okay, hopefully will get myself a table to work on soon, I drew three sketches about leaving country and I want to paint them!

This is fantastic on many fronts! I’m really impressed that you are embracing many of the challenges that come with a big move and you’re doing great! I love the idea of making art that reflects your feelings about what’s going on in your life, leaving your country, the protests, etc. Im excited to see this large painting when it’s done. Great you got vaccine. I too had a very sore arm but that was all. Congratulations on your courage and perseverance!! Sending you my very best from Boston!🤗😻💕💃🏻🎉🎨
