MY STORY
My baby Aurora Annette died unexpectedly, three days after she and her identical twin sister were 2 months old. I alchemize my grief into colorful paintings , inspired by the Aurora Borealis. I dedicate all of my paintings to Aurora, and I process the complexities and layers of grief through my art. My grief is intensified & compounded by my past trauma. For over 3 years, I struggled with infertility due to endometriosis stage 3. I had two invasive surgeries, 10 months apart. After which, I endured a cycle of in-vitro fertilization, leading to a high risk pregnancy & emergency c-section 7 weeks early. Because my babies were born premature, they stayed in the NICU for 1 month. After being home for a month, Aurora Annette didn't wake up and never would again. Her death was ruled as Sudden Unexplained Infant Death. My art has become the primary outlet for my grief and emotions in losing my baby so unexpectedly.
Here’s the crazy thing, doing IVF produced only ONE healthy, viable embryo. Then, a miracle happened, and our one, unicorn embryo split and I was pregnant with identical twins. Wtf is even the point of me having to go through ALL that if one of my twins was going to die? It’s a complete mindf**k to birth two babies, but only raise one. My newest series of Aurora paintings are vibrant, layered, and fluorescent, however, each painting is titled after the unresolved, complex trauma I carry, an intentional contrast to the bright colors. Seeing my Aurora paintings change and evolve is the closest I will ever be, in this lifetime, to watching Aurora grow up with her twin. I’m bringing her into the present by acknowledging her through my art, while also validating my difficult, years-long journey to motherhood.

This is a commission for an original watercolor painting on black paper of the Aurora Borealis, painted with gouache and colorshifting paint. The artwork changes colors when viewed from different angles. (Price includes sales tax & free first class shipping in the US)
This painting is part of my first fully abstract painting
series. I paint the Aurora Borealis in memory of my daughter Aurora
Annette, who died from Sudden Unexpected Infant Death, three days
after she and her identical twin sister were two months old. I
alchemize my grief, pain, and heartbreak into colorful paintings,
inspired by the Aurora Borealis, and I dedicate each one to Aurora Annette.
This abstract series serves as the visualization of my
years-long journey from primary infertility to the grief after
losing one of my twin infants. My artwork is several layers deep,
from the literal layers of vibrant metallic acrylic paint and
colorshifting glitter pigments to the emotional layers of trauma,
depression, grief, and anxiety. The bright colors and sparkly
glitter details are a stark contrast to the darker, more complex and
complicated emotions that they hold.
This series of paintings was featured at the New You exhibition by Start Shows at One Art Space in New York City, January 2023.

ARTWORK INFORMATION
Title: Confusion
Medium: metallic acrylic with colorshifting pigment on black canvas
Size: 8x8 inches (20.32 x 20.32 cm)
Year Completed: 2022
This painting is part of my first fully abstract painting
series. I paint the Aurora Borealis in memory of my daughter Aurora
Annette, who died from Sudden Unexpected Infant Death, three days
after she and her identical twin sister were two months old. I
alchemize my grief, pain, and heartbreak into colorful paintings,
inspired by the Aurora Borealis, and I dedicate each one to Aurora Annette.
This abstract series serves as the visualization of my
years-long journey from primary infertility to the grief after
losing one of my twin infants. My artwork is several layers deep,
from the literal layers of vibrant metallic acrylic paint and
colorshifting glitter pigments to the emotional layers of trauma,
depression, grief, and anxiety. The bright colors and sparkly
glitter details are a stark contrast to the darker, more complex and
complicated emotions that they hold.
