We checked in with Chris Ballantyne, who is away from his studio but hard at work nonetheless.

Ballantyne is making the most of a tricky situation, caught mid-trip by travel restrictions while visiting family. While he and his family self-isolate, he has set up a makeshift studio and is working on new works on paper, as well as exploring a local golf course which is slowly returning to its natural state. Swipe to see what he's been up to.
