What I love the most about aerial paintings is that they don’t demand precision or explanation. There’s no need to be caught up in what they’re “meant to be”. The reference image I used are simply starting points - a rough guide. What truly shapes each piece is freedom, emotion, and intuition.
This body of work began after I survived heart attack and was confronted with the frightening possibility of a clot on my heart. As I waited in uncertainty, everything that I thought was important faded into the background. What remained was the quiet truth that I didn’t need more things - I needed something that soothed my soul. And for me, that something was art.
Even when my body was weak, I would return to my easel and paint in small, gentle increments. Each brushstroke became a form of meditation. For a time, my fears would soften, and I felt. A lightness -mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
Art had become more than just a creative outlet. It’s my therapy, my medicine, and my way of reconnecting with what truly brings me peace. Through my aerial paintings, I invite others to slow down, breathe, and see the world not for what it is, but for how it feels.
