>Sam Murphy is not an artist, but when the pandemic hit in March 2020 she needed a distraction. She and her family had been on their way to Moncton, N.B., to leave on a family trip, but ended up cancelling it and heading back over the Confederation Bridge to P.E.I.
She picked up her sketching supplies and began doodling.
"There was just something that Sunday that led me to draw something," said Murphy from her home in Charlottetown, where she runs her business as a land-use planner. She's also a professional violinist and plays in the P.E.I. Symphony Orchestra.
"I thought it would be short-lived," she said with a smile. "I thought for a few days I'll just draw something a day and that'll be a distraction and help me with keeping my spirits up."<
This delightful photo essay features more text, many views of art and photos of
the artist. I'm pleased to state that I have a family ancestor from PEI/Prince Edward Island.
