Jonna Rae Brinkman (American, b. 1960): Paintings on canvas III: 9/11

On 9/11/01, Jonna Rae Brinkman woke up and tried to make a call on her cell phone. Getting no signal, she decided to go up to the roof of her Brooklyn studio across the river from the World Trade Center. She reached the roof just as the second plane hit and, being an artist, she did the only thing she could: she began painting. For the next three weeks, when she wasn't walking over to the site, she painted, trying to make sense of what she saw. We will be adding paintings to this page over the next few weeks as time permits until we have a large selection of the works she did during those grief-filled days.
