Despite their tiny size—their average weight is that of a nickel—hummingbirds are fierce, robust birds. The black-throated mango hummingbird from South America is just one of 366 recognized hummingbird species across the globe. Symbolically, they represent joy, freedom, perseverance, creativity, love, and healing. And as the only birds that can fly backwards, they also represent flexibility and freedom, encouraging us to embrace change and live in the present. Hummingbirds don’t migrate in flocks, interestingly, but instead will fly up to 500 miles solo. I see this piece as a reflection of a moment towards the end of that long, solo trek. When it finally reaches it’s destination after a difficult but necessary journey. I wanted to create a more dramatic painting, with lots of implied movement, as the subject ascended from a darker space into an abstracted area of light. And to somehow provide it with a sense buoyancy, despite the distance it had traveled. Thank you for viewing this painting! - Aimée

Aimée Rolin Hoover is an American painter who has devoted more than twenty years to depicting animals and nature. Initially, she attributed her early exploration of animal imagery simply to her lifelong affection for animals. But as her artistic practice developed, she discovered a much deeper connection between animals, nature, and healing. Encounters with animals—whether locking eyes with a coyote or feeling the gentle touch of a horse's muzzle—revealed to her a deeper awareness of life and her surroundings. These moments provided brief but welcome respites from the human tendency to overthink, guiding her to sense, feel, and connect. Her current body of work is inspired by this belief in the remarkable power of animals to ground us in the present moment, enriching our connection with life. Through her expressive paintings, she aims to capture the essence of these subtle yet profound moments, using her subjects as portals to invite viewers to experience joy, peacefulness, curiosity, and introspection. Aimée currently works and lives in southern California with her husband Scott, their dog Björn, and their cat Sesame.
