Andrea Joyce Heimer talks to the Wall Street Journal about her art and process during the global pandemic of COVID-19.
"During the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic I began making drawings of the figures that usually live in my paintings. Fifty of them are included in this book. I made one drawing per day to keep my mind quiet. Unlike the hindsight-heavy storylines of my paintings the drawn figures occupy the here and now and they are doing very little. They stand, eat, fuck, stare out the window, and listen. They are waiting." —Andrea Joyce Heimer
