Answer:
During the lockdown, I've had plenty of time to myself. Rather than spend all my time bingeing
Netflix
, I decided to focus on myself and try out several new hobbies.
During the process, I rediscovered a love for creativity and imagination ... while also realizing a dislike for needles and thread.
Here are six hobbies I tried during the lockdown and what happened when I tried them out.
During the lockdown, I painted for the first time in nearly a decade.

My painting set-up. Matthew Wilson/Business Insider
When I was in high school, art was my favorite class. I learned how to blend different colors together and attempted many different techniques, and through it all, I found a passion for creating. It was OK that I wasn't the greatest artist alive; art was about the pursuit of creation.
Though I've continued to draw and sketch, it's been years since I picked up a paintbrush. After buying some acrylic paint, I decided to unleash my inner artist once more.
I've never been the best at pulling an image from my head, so for the painting, I used a photo of a tree I found online as reference as I created my own version.
In the vein of Bob Ross, I painted a happy little tree.

OK, so the tree didn't look that happy. I was pretty rusty when it came to blending colors together. I attempted to paint a tree, a glow in a fire of reds during sunset, but I mixed the paints too dark. Instead, it came out looking like a murder scene on the canvas.
But I was proud of the end of the result, all things considered.

"Lullabies in autumn." Matthew Wilson/Business Insider
Using a sponge and white paint, I attempted to salvage my painting and bring it closer to what I originally envisioned. The tree slowly took shape from a blob of red, and I could see the pink tinged grass blowing in the wind.
Towards the end of the painting, I had a moment of improvisation. Without thinking, I painted the silhouette of a woman near the tree and a cross as well.
