"Air Born"

Michael Jordan

Before his NBA championships in Chicago, Michael Jordan helped North Carolina win the 1982 NCAA title. His late jumper against Georgetown became a defining moment of that championship game and an early milestone in a career that would transform basketball.

“Air Born,” Justyn Farano’s fifth Michael Jordan painting, returns to his North Carolina years. Jordan lifts the basketball toward the hoop in a white Tar Heels uniform, surrounded by Carolina blue. A smaller monochrome scene shows a two-handed dunk, while a card-style vignette above captures him dribbling. The interlocking NC emblem connects those images to Chapel Hill. The painting brings several views of the young Jordan together, celebrating the college chapter that preceded his professional career. This Artist Proof artist recreation is hand-signed by Michael Jordan.

The philosophy behind my art has always been to make the most compelling, engaging experience for you, the viewer. I try to envision what it was like to compete against that athlete on the field. I want you to feel that grit and rawness of emotion, the athlete’s competitive fire, and passion.

As a perfectionist, my obsession of getting these details precise, takes razor focus, constant critiquing, and fine tuning. It’s not till the painting is complete to my highest of standard, till I am genuinely satisfied.
