Love Chicago

The “Love Chicago” series is a heartfelt homage to the artist’s intimate explorations along Lake Michigan’s shores, confined to the vicinity of her home during the pandemic’s solitude. Each image is a canvas of contemplation, where dramatic cloudscapes and the capricious play of light and shadow across the water’s surface are immortalized. Drawing inspiration from Whistler’s evocative Nocturne series, these paintings are emotional landscapes, capturing the quietude and introspection of a world paused, reflecting the collective mood of a significant moment in time.
