Inspired by a shift from loss, I've discovered a theme of resilience and adaptation. It marks a transition from loss, emerging from dissolution into evolution. This new work is a conversation between memory and transformation, honoring the past's influence on the present.

"Silent Echoes" differs from my recent works. While it also highlights a horse, it's more conceptual and composed mostly of acrylic. I see it as my transitional piece (or delimiter), a search for a space beyond grief. As a re-imagined self-portrait, it explores identity and hope, embodying resilience and self-reflection.

I used generative AI to help actualize the idea for this painting. It's a tool that I've incorporated into my painting process that's become quite useful for creating reference material for challenging concepts.

This piece is largely acrylic. Oil creates the detail in the hair, some of the cottonball clouds, and the armor of the astronaut.
