Lady of Shallot Series

COVID isolation provides the perfect analogous setting for my story.
I have dreamed of creating my own Lady of Shallot photo story for a few years. The original story is written by Alfred Tennyson, "She sufferes from a mysterious curse and must continually weave images on her loom without ever looking directly out at the world." Such a fitting description of our times.
My Lady is a painter instead of a weaver. And she cannot go outside and paint plein-air that she so loves to do.
In Tennyson's story, she finally leaves her tower and finds a boat to travel to Camelot via the river. But she doesn't make it there alive. My Lady certainly does, and she sees her way through isolation to do what she loves. As will we. In time.
