Avelino Sanher
'Melodia' - Ballerina in Blue - The Ballet Series - Figurative Oil Painting

2024

About the Item

"Melodia" by Avelino Sanher is a striking 48" x 36" oil on canvas that beautifully encapsulates the essence of contemporary abstract figurative art. As a part of 'The Ballet' series, the painting portrays an ethereal figure, draped in a vivid azure cloth, suspended in a deep, velvety expanse, reaching for a translucent orb. The use of contrasting colors— the richness of the blue against the dark background— evokes a sense of depth and mystery. The fluidity of the figure's movement, combined with the celestial sphere, suggests a dance with the cosmos, a melody of motion that is both serene and invigorating. The artist's Mexican heritage infuses the piece with a warmth that is felt in the passionate reds and cool, dreamlike blues, inviting the viewer to hear the silent music of the universe. Sanher's "Melodia" is a visual symphony that speaks to the soul's unspoken tunes, resonating with a harmony that transcends the canvas. About the Artist: Avelino Sanher, born in Mexico City in 1972 and a U.S. resident since 1998, is an artist known for his mastery of oil paints and acrylics. His work is a testament to his commitment to inspire and connect with artists and collectors alike. Avelino's unique approach sees him using varied mediums, from recycled cardboard to plastered walls, embodying his belief that art is boundless. His bicultural life, split between Mexico and the United States, imbues his art with a vibrant, energetic quality. Avelino's pieces are a colorful reflection of life's moments, seen through a lens that merges two rich cultural perspectives. Avelino's art is prominently displayed in Silicon Valley, gracing spaces from the Chicano Center at Stanford University to fine dining establishments and casual eateries. This diverse presence underscores his philosophy that art should be accessible to all, resonating across different settings and audiences. In essence, Avelino Sanher's art is a vivid narrative of a life lived across two cultures, captivating viewers with its dynamic and spirited expression. Original, one-of-a-kind. Available at the American Art Gallery, Carmel-by-the-Sea, California. Keywords: oil painting, figurative, contemporary, art, Avelino Sanher, blue, ballerina, ballet, dance, orb, depth
