2024

About the Item

Art has always been an essential element of Annie's being. As a little girl, she was constantly creating art. Whether it was carving shapes out of sticks outside or painting and drawing enormous (and undesired by her parents) murals on the walls in her childhood home, her yearning to create was innate. She began to focus this instinct towards painting, and eventually found herself evolving as an artist. After graduating with a BFA from the University of Georgia, she was eager to spread her passion for art. She began teaching art while maintaining a consistent practice in her own painting. During this time, she recognized how art was serving a therapeutic value. She developed a strong appreciation for how art making was connecting her to Self: spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically. She felt and saw in some of her students how the expression, process, and production of art generated a sense of healing. This belief led her to pursue a career in art therapy. After earning a Masters in Art Therapy and Clinical Counseling from Eastern Virginia Medical School, she worked primarily with children struggling with issues of neglect, trauma, and abuse. The world of art has been an amazing adventure for her. From art educator to art therapist, she has always remained rooted in her own growth as an artist. Currently, she is devoting her attention to motherhood and painting full time as she faithfully allows this artistic journey to entrance her.

  • Round Deep Purple, Blue, and Gold Three Dimensional Mixed Media Painting
    Located in Houston, TX
    Deep purple and gold abstract mixed-media painting by Hawaii-based artist, Èlan Vital. This round piece depicts a deep, almost three-dimensional painting achieved through layers of pigments. Small stone-like details create texture throughout the painting. Paint drippings are also seen along the edges of the piece. Signed by the artist at the back of the painting. Unframed but framing options are available. Artist Biography: As the son of a prominent lithographer and growing up in New York City, Élan was exposed to art and color at a very early age. His discovery of Leonardo DaVinci's renaissance diversity theory first touched him when he was only seven; DaVinci became an influential force in Élan's life and still is to this day. Élan attended a high school for gifted students and graduated with honors, attaining an equivalency of an Associate Degree in Engineering at age seventeen. After graduation, Élan was hired by the IBM Corporation as a computer diagnostics expert - the youngest on their team. He was later hired by the ITT Corporation as a design engineer for projects such as the Manila airport underground lighting system and the towers for a hydroelectric dam in Pakistan. Élan's personal artistic revolution began after leaving the corporate world and joining a commune of artists in the East Village, Manhattan. It was there while designing psychedelic lighting equipment, Élan met Andy Warhol. Andy committed the monetary resources for Élan to design the first psychedelic discotechque, located on Saint Marks Place in New York City. This became the springboard for many artistic endeavors for Élan - combining invention with art. Élan moved to Hawaii in 1988. His first major work in Maui was a 49-foot, 10-ton, life-size, humpback whale - the largest sculpture of its kind in Hawaii. Élan donated the whale to establish Maui's Ecology Park, where it is now on permanent display. After completion of the whale, Élan began his signature work - combining aerospace enamel with exotic pigments and finely ground minerals. His inspiration for these meta-realistic paintings comes from the beauty of gemstones, his colorful surroundings, and life itself. Élan's masterpieces, with 30-75 layers of extraordinary color, explode with depth and movement! Like fine studio art-glass and gemstones, light travels through each individual layer of color; this is what makes Élan's work so incredibly luminous! The only artist in the world to use this medium and technique, Élan has captured nature's beauty, creating a unique and compelling style. Currently the number one selling artist of original paintings in the Hawaiian Islands, Élan has sold over 6,500 works, with patrons from around the world. More than 70% of Élan's admirers have acquired five or more works of art for their homes or businesses. Élan's originals can be seen online at Elan Vital...
