While some may have couch surfed endless Netflix shows, many others were busy developing their skills painting, knitting, embroidering, exploring crafts, or endlessly trying to bake the perfect sourdough loaf.
The creative arts surged as Kiwi artists embraced their creative sides to overcome the potential boredom of being stuck at home.
What was old was new again as painting, puzzles, photography,gardening, knitting and baking were among the hobbies that countless New Zealanders embraced.

The exhibition features works created under lockdown from artists throughout the region, expressing their creative mood while confined to their homes.

The symptoms and appearance of veins will slowly get worse over time. As you age and become less active they can deteriorate leading to skin changes or even ulcers.
Even small veins can become painful and can undermine a person's confidence and self-esteem.
