Falling Lightyears, 22”x22”, acrylic on canvas, 2020.

Falling Light-years is a metaphor for the cosmic changing seasons of 2020. The world is no longer what it was a year ago. Everything is occurring at such a rapid pace it is almost overwhelming to witness. The days seem like falling years. What does a light-year look like and how can I paint it? The painting is a moment in this unprecedented time as I look for grounding and stability amidst chaos.
