This week has been very uneventful. The beginning of the week started with a small bit of excitement because the Traders village was to open May 2. I very much wanted to go and try and start again. I debated with myself over and over, trying to decide if this was the right course of action for me and my family right now. Then Friday afternoon the decision was made for me. The city of San Antonio decided that it would not be in the public’s best interest to allow Traders Village to open this weekend. There was a lot of disagreements over the reopening of the popular flea market.
The Traders Village in San Antonio is not the only Traders Village in Texas. There is one near Houston and another in Dallas. Those Flea-markets were allowed by their respective city’s to operate. So why did the City of San Antonio stop this flea market from opening? I don’t know or understand. maybe because its hard to limit a 25 % occupancy in a open air environment? Still, I cant understand if the Movie theaters are open, and stores are open why not an Open air area? I feel that if confined environments such as a movie theater can allow occupants. why not an open air environment? It could be said that a confined environment like the theater could make you more susceptible to a air born virus than a open air area.
What do I know I’m just a caricature artist. I was also considering about how i would draw people with masks on. Especially if the flea-market made masks mandatory. That’s besides the fact of being exposed to the virus at the flea-market. I haven’t drawn anyone for a while now. It is getting depressing. I think I have let it overwhelm me a bit. I just keep waiting as patiently as I can, and hopefully this whole thing is over with soon.
Last week gave a a jump start on some inspiration. Then it just fizzled out. Don’t know why…Just did. I going to clean my garage this week in hopes of finding some moyivation in all of this.
