The pandemic was difficult for everyone, particularly for seniors who spent most of the past 16 months in complete lockdown to protect their health. But for 104-year-old artist Sue Whitman, the extended quarantine was, in some ways, a revelation.
Whitman spent every day of the pandemic alone in her San Marcos apartment painting, drawing and making collages and mixed-media assemblages. Some of the artwork she created since March 2020 will be featured next month in a solo exhibition at the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library in La Jolla.
