ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This painting started with the pull to create something with lots of movement and energy and wanting to challenge myself with a more complex composition, going beyond capturing a single subject. So the inspiration for this piece really started simply with the type of energy I wanted it to embody. From there, it was a matter of figuring out the best subject(s) to help me communicate that idea. The ideal subject needed to be able to strike varied and interesting poses. Which would (hopefully) aid in adding complexity and movement. Which lead me to the flamingo. The distinct physique of this exotic bird made it a natural fit for the energy I wanted to convey. So many angles and positions and shapes to play around with. Not to mention that gorgeous, intensely colored plumage. Arranging them into a balanced composition took weeks, and began to feel like arranging a large bunch of exotic flowers, thus the inspiration for the title, The Bouquet.

American painter, Aimée Rolin Hoover, has devoted more than twenty years to depicting animals and nature. Initially, she attributed her early exploration of animal imagery simply to her lifelong affection for animals. But as her artistic practice developed, she discovered a much deeper connection between animals, nature, and healing. Encounters with animals—whether locking eyes with a coyote or the gentle touch of a horse's muzzle—revealed to her a deeper awareness of life and her surroundings. These moments provided brief but welcome respites from the human tendency to overthink, guiding her to sense, feel, and connect. Her current body of work is inspired by this belief in the remarkable power of animals to ground us in the present moment, enriching our connection with life. Through her expressive paintings, she aims to capture the essence of these subtle yet profound moments, using her subjects as portals to invite viewers to experience joy, peacefulness, curiosity, and introspection. Aimée currently works and lives in southern California with her husband Scott, their dog Björn, and their cat Sesame.
