It’s been almost a year since the COVID-19 pandemic started, and it has affected nearly every part of the world.

We’ve all experienced the impact of lockdowns and various measures to control the virus.

For many of us, that meant staying at home, buying lots of soap, toilet paper, and hand sanitizer, and being unable to visit our loved ones.

This “new normal” has transformed every aspect of our lives, from our daily routines and social interactions to our fashion choices.

To bring a little humor to our everyday struggles, Irina Blok, a talented graphic designer and artist, created a series of light-hearted illustrations that depict the “before and after” of our lives during the pandemic.

We’re confident that you’ll find these illustrations relatable and enjoyable!
