For my entire life, I’ve lived with the knowledge that my eye disease could make me blind. But now that I’m pursuing an art career, I’ve had to process anew what vision loss might mean for my life.

This series didn’t begin as a nod to my disease, Retinitus Pigmentosa (RP), but it quickly became one.

A mistaken blob of dark paint became an abstract darkness with spots of bright light and a single plant in the center—representing the way RP causes tunnel vision or patches of vision loss.

As I painted, I came back to the same fact I always do:

Life is change.

I can’t predict what my circumstances will be, but that doesn’t affect what I have in this moment.

If I can relish the details, soak in the color, or enjoy the sound of my brushes on paper, then that’s what I should do.

Because everyone experiences lots of change, and we adapt—and always will. And being afraid of what the future might hold, takes away from the beauty in this moment right now.

And no matter what, beauty can be found or created, even in the darkest places.
