Vital Legacy No. 8 — Nearing Completion
This one has been a storm on the canvas.

Vital Legacy No. 8 is almost finished, and it’s carrying a different kind of fire — motion, heat, and the raw pulse of a moment when everything hangs in the balance. The colors came alive before I even realized the story they were telling. It’s wild, urgent, and honest… the kind of piece that doesn’t ask permission to exist.

Every stroke in this series is tied to Julia’s journey, but this one feels like the moment the heart decides to fight back. The moment the room shifts. The moment the impossible becomes possible.

I’m excited to share the full piece soon. For now, here’s the truth:
No. 8 is breathing. And it’s almost ready.

🫀 Vital Legacy No. 7: Coming to Life
As my beautiful Julia grows stronger, these Heart Failure Symposium paintings are growing with her.

Every brushstroke feels more alive.
Every canvas more urgent.
Every heart I paint carries the echo of hers—fighting, healing, transcending.

This one is becoming something surreal: a fusion of anatomy, machinery, and sky.
A heartbeat suspended in grace.
A testimony in progress.

Thank you to everyone who’s helped us stay close enough to finish these.
Vital Legacy is not just a series. It’s a survival story told in paint.

🫀 Vital Legacy No. 7 is underway.
Started yesterday, and it’s already alive with color, precision, and truth.

This canvas is about the assisted heartbeat—the place where engineering meets mercy, where survival becomes legacy. Every line, every chamber, every swirl of color is carrying the story forward.

To the builders of the bridge.
To the surgeons who cross it.
To Julia, whose journey gave this series its pulse.

Stay close. This one is becoming something powerful.

🫀 Commissioned by Safe Space. Painted in the storm.

This heart was requested by someone who sees the quiet battles. A staff member at the Safe Space Shelter in St. Paul asked for a piece of the Vital Existentialism movement—not as decoration, but as declaration.

So I painted this in the middle of our own survival. Between ICU alarms and whispered prayers. Between Julia’s orchid wall and the next canvas waiting to be born.

It’s not just a heart. It’s a thank you. A tribute. A reminder that sanctuary isn’t passive—it’s built, brushstroke by brushstroke.

🌺 Orchid for My Beloved

In the hush of this holiday,
while machines hum their winter hymns
and the world celebrates elsewhere,
I sit beside her and paint.

Another orchid—
born in the soft glow of the ICU,
shaped by breath, memory, and love.

This one isn’t for a series.
It isn’t for a gallery.
It’s for our wall—
our living archive of endurance,
where every bloom holds a moment
we refused to surrender.

A flower for Julia,
painted in the quiet hours
where love keeps its vigil.

Beginning the Next Heart

This morning, I started the next canvas in my Open Heart Existential Mini Series—right here in the ICU, beside Julia. Each brushstroke carries devotion, survival, and love. The heart is only beginning to speak, and tomorrow I’ll return to continue its story.

What it becomes is still unfolding. For now, it stands as a witness: to resilience, to presence, to the fight we live in real time.

Thank you to everyone holding space for us. The series continues—one heartbeat, one canvas, one act of creation at a time.

Finished Today: Vital Legacy No. 5

This heart was born in the ICU, painted between pulses of hope and exhaustion. I started it yesterday morning beside Julia, and today—same place, same fight—I finished it. Every stroke carries the weight of survival, the rhythm of resilience, and the fire of love that refuses to dim.

This is more than anatomy. It’s testimony. It’s the fifth chapter in the Open Heart Existential Mini Series, and it speaks for every moment we’ve endured, every breath we’ve guarded, every prayer we’ve painted.

Thank you to everyone walking with us. The movement continues—one heartbeat, one canvas, one act of creation at a time.
