The smallest piece from the Promise collection this canvas art print depicts the completion of the movement shown in the four painting series. The figure skaters hands are clasped together over her chest. The movement of the spin is present, her head and face blurred with it's speed, her right skate a ghost against the white background, but there is solidity in her hands and the way she holds them to her body. This is a painting about the safety and security that comes from self love and self respect, and from being, even if only for tiny moments at a time, alone with yourself.
The Promise collection is a series of four paintings inspired by US figure skater and 2025 World Champion Alysa Liu. In 2024 she returned to figure skating after a two year retirement from which most expected she would not return. Her short program set to the song "Promise" by Laufey was an expressive, emotional and inspiring homecoming and it won over the hearts of figure skating fans all over the world - myself included. This collection is an ode to that program and to the music that inspired it. Each of the four pieces depicts a moment in the final spin of her program, each only a fraction of a second away from the one before. I painted them on a white background without distraction - in these moments there is only her, there is only this spin, there are only the feelings it brings. For these precious moments the rest of the world melts away.
I consider myself a link in a chain of artists collaborating and inspiring each other - musicians, choreographers, and of course the skater herself. My greatest hope for this collection is that it will go on to inspire others, continuing the chain and bringing more art into the world than existed before it.
