A Year of Faith by HR Ocampo
(1973, Oil on Canvas)
.
The title of this piece gives a deeper meaning as we look at the situation right now. “Faith” is a word often correlated to religion.
Spare a thought for anyone filling out a dating profile right now. “Love pubs, coffee shops, eating out, going to the cinema, museums, galleries, historical spots, walking.” No wait. “Man seeks woman - to admire from afar. Must have GSOH.”

US Navy photographer Fred Gerretson landed on Utah Beach. He sent undeveloped films back to UK for processing in press bags like this one. He didn't see his photos until after the end of the war. Wartime photo: US Navy. #museumsathome #cultureinquarantine
@AshmoleanMuseum One day I hope to be able to visit your museum and see all these beautiful items. You’re on my bucket list now! #IsolationCreations #MuseumsfromHome Here’s my netsuke in four steps. 💜

I love Titian's Diana and Actaeon. It was one of the last paintings I looked at last week, when @NationalGallery shut. And yet, I can still visit it whenever I want on the NG website. Museums might be closed, but their collections are open. #CultureInQuarantine
Using #MuseumBouquet, museums across Canada & the US are Tweeting flowers to each other!
