CORONAVIRUS POSTERS By Michael Slotwinski

CORONAVIRUS POSTERS By Michael Slotwinski

Inspired by WWI & II War Effort and Propaganda Posters, this is Sarnia-based artist Michael Slotwinski’s take on mankind’s efforts to prevent the spread of the Covid-19 virus.

Each are dry-brush oil paintings on 18 x 24 inch watercolour paper.

“Everyone has a part to play, even if your part is simply just staying on your couch. It is helping make a difference, and if you feel that there is more that you could be doing; why not donate blood, create homemade masks, or help inform friends and family that haven’t taken the protocols seriously.” – Micheal Slotwinski
