ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The Above the Clouds collection captures a few brief magical moments in the sky. On any given flight, you get the google maps satellite view. The gridded farmland, the vast oceans, and the mountains that remind you of an atlas. Not here. Here we were lost in a blanket of white. Lost in daydreams. Lost in meditative nothingness. Lost in this space of quite expansiveness between the clouds. Emerging from the white blanket still between the clouds, they became like the land or the sea below. Sandwiched in a perfect golden sunset. Transported to a place where we exist without the need for a body, or land, or air. This was pure ethereal peace. And just like that it was over. With this collection, I want to take you with me on this journey. I want to give us the opportunity to visit this magical space anytime. And the freedom to stay for longer than a brief moment.

The gentle abstraction of an unusual perspective in skyscapes plays with our understanding of perception as I explore an inner world of emotions. I investigate the push-and-pull of seeking calm, observing wonder, and striving for more out of our human experience. I layer oils and acrylics to create bring to life these atmospheric pieces. I usually begin with a neon pink underpainting or base, even for what will ultimately become a muted color pallet. This plays with the exploration of inner worlds. Below the surface, most viewers would not expect to see a drastically different saturated hue below. Light and quick brush strokes in the clouds accumulate over layers to bring a peaceful tone and gentle movement.
