About the Item
Explore the enchanting narrative of "Story of Red" by Andrada Trapnell, a 2023 mixed media creation that invokes the timeless tale of Red Riding Hood. This original artwork, measuring 30 x 40 inches, is masterfully rendered on board and comes unframed yet ready to hang. The scene captures a woman draped in a red hood, seated amidst a whimsically textured landscape under a radiant moon, evoking the solitude and mystery reminiscent of the classic story. Trapnell's use of a rich, moody palette emphasizes the reds and grays, bringing depth and emotion to the forested backdrop and rustic elements. Perfect for those who cherish fairy tale inspirations in contemporary art, this piece beautifully marries the old with the new in its textured execution and thematic depth.
Artist Statement: Story of Red
By Andrada Trapnell
We’ve heard the story, it has been told
About the red, the hood and the wolf’s world
Where hunger lies above it all and tricks can play the biggest role.
I know the tale I have been told, but on Red’s actions I’m not sold.
So in the timeline I portrayed, she laid under a tree's shade,
Fell asleep and later on, she decided to move on.
In a hurry she’d forgotten, the gift basket full of apples.
And you see the wolf has found it, ate the apples and decided
That from now on the best bait is to sit around and wait.

Art, visual representation, and the embodiment of dreams, reality, thoughts and feelings were always a big part of my life. From an early age growing up in Romania, I was drawn to all forms of creative expression. This passion was always burning inside of me, and after multiple degrees and a short stint in the world of finance, I decided that I would pursue my true passion and start down the long and winding road of becoming a self-taught artist. Creativity can be achieved in many forms, and the art of creation is an integral part of life itself. I have been inspired by many subjects throughout this creative journey, perhaps most importantly by the distinction between the tangible world that we live in and the mysterious realm of dreams that offers a surreal gateway to our subconscious mind. For me, painting is a language of its own, from the way the first brush stroke starts a conversation to the way the last one completes a bigger picture with grand statements, abstract feelings, or open-ended conversation. This is about the journey that the artist takes to communicate, as well as the journey the viewer will experience when absorbing a work of art. Finding myself on a love carrousel of many different influences and styles, the core of my artistic adventure has been about the distinction between the tangible and the subconscious. In my figurative work, I contour a subject through a lens of realism to establish a common understanding of existence. Through the use of mixed media in the surrounding, I reveal a representation of what the subject’s subconscious thoughts are revealing to the viewer.

"Red Shoes" (2024) By Nadezda, Original Surrealist Oil Portrait Painting
Located in Denver, CO
Nadezda's beautiful new oil on panel painting "Red Shoes" (2024) is a surrealist portrait of a young woman wearing a Russian dress, posed impossibly among a strange arrangement of objects at varying perspectives. Among these are living things like a spirit resting on the bed, and a small humanoid figure wearing a mask.
Nadezda is a painter, sculptor, photographer, and concept artist. Her artwork is focused on narratives carefully gathered from the hidden chambers of her imagination as well as live theater-inspired work with actors, dancers, and models. Like a quilt stitched of poetic realities, Nadezda’s mysterious world defies the mundane. With a non-linear creative process flowing between different media, the artist explores various vantage points in her creations. This dynamic approach inspires her mind’s eye to focus on the worlds within and evoke an uninterrupted, creative transmission which is then channeled through her paintings, drawings, sculpture, photography, writing and film.
