Stormy Weather I
Located in Nashville, TN
This stunning abstract by contemporary artist, architect, and designer Ana Carolina Mönnaco blends a beautiful variety of colors that make the piece jump off the canvas.
This piece was made for the artist's exhibit, "Blurred & Fractured," at Modfellows Art Gallery - WeHo in Nashville, Tennessee. The piece is hand signed by the artist in the bottom-right corner and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity issued by the gallery.
Mönnaco’s history in architecture has pushed her to peer past the structured world in which we live, to convey the unbound world which surrounds us. She is interested in the continuous reaching of life. She says, “we live with this blurred and fractured vision of the world, yet inside each of us there’s an undeniable conviction that something beautiful and perfect still exists beyond our grasp.” In response to this, Mönnaco uses a sophisticated color palette and inspiration found in the beauty of the natural world to create rich environments which encapsulate the viewer by surrounding them with wonderment of the unknown.
About the Artist: Ana Carolina Mönnaco is an artist from Curitiba, Brazil, where she developed a love of art and architecture. She graduated from Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. After graduating in 2002, she joined Morris Architects in Orlando, Florida. Mönnaco has won many prestigious awards including the International Watercolor Masters Merit Award, the AIP 24 Juror Award, and the AIP Hugh Ferris...

COMBING (WITH RAYS) - Large Textured Oil Painting w/ Scene of a Mother & Child
By Eleanor Aldrich
Located in Signal Mountain, TN
COMBING (w/ RAYS) is an oil on canvas painting by Eleanor Aldrich created in 2021. In this piece we see a scene of a girl having her hair combed by her mother. The thick texture of the imagery is created utilizing a device made by the artist in which the paint is literally combed through the forms to give the contour lines and illusion of space. Aldrich is utilizing a palette that has more neutral tones in the center of the canvas while bold rays of color expand from the center and outwards towards the edge of the piece.

INCLINED READER - Textured Oil Painting w/ Scene of a Girl Reading a Book
By Eleanor Aldrich
Located in Signal Mountain, TN
INCLINED READER is an oil and canvas painting by Eleanor Aldrich created in 2022. This piece utilizes a thick caulk on top of the canvas as an underlayment, adding a wavy, structural texture to the painting. In the center, we see a young girl reading. She’s laying on a bed, inclined slightly, with her head and gaze turned towards the viewer. Her legs, along with the colors of the background and the bedding, warp into rays emanating to the edges of the canvas. The painting resembles a nostalgic, family-archive type photograph, processed through a simple photobooth filter.
INCLINED READER was featured as part of a two-person exhibition with Pamela Jorden...

Since the 1990s, Heinsohn’s work has addressed climate change, impending cataclysm, and cultural dysfunction in numerous bodies of work including his mixed media wall reliefs, his "Time Frames" series of photo-based abstractions, and his turbulent, thickly painted, cratered abstractions. However, as mentioned in his recent statement:
“Given the current dysfunctional mayhem of our planet, I believe we need visual art that provides a place for the mind to transcend our calamity, to thoughtfully explore the multitude of unknowns connected to our daily lives, and to thereby refresh our optimism and our sense of urgency in the reimagining of our existence.”
These new works channel the meditative properties of abstraction pursued by Kandinsky and Malevich, combined with intuitive approaches of accessing higher consciousness which guided Hilma af Klint as well as, much later, artists of Abstract Surrealism such as Gordon Onslow Ford, Roberto Matta, Wolfgang Paalen...

KITCHEN SINK (WITH RAYS) - Large Textured Oil Painting w/ Bold Blue, Gold & Pink
By Eleanor Aldrich
Located in Signal Mountain, TN
KITCHEN SINK (w/ RAYS) is a large scale oil on canvas painting created in 2022 by Eleanor Aldrich. This piece is created using more abstract qualities than her previous work. Utilizing a filter from Apple's Photo Booth, she has created a composition that centers around a subject working at a kitchen sink. Outwardly projecting from this image (or closing in on) are rays of color and light. The expanding and contracting effect is meant to symbolize the quick passage of time.
KITCHEN SINK (w/ RAYS) was part of a two person exhibition with Pamela Jorden...

Since the 1990s, Heinsohn’s work has addressed climate change, impending cataclysm, and cultural dysfunction in numerous bodies of work including his mixed media wall reliefs, his "Time Frames" series of photo-based abstractions, and his turbulent, thickly painted, cratered abstractions. However, as mentioned in his recent statement:
“Given the current dysfunctional mayhem of our planet, I believe we need visual art that provides a place for the mind to transcend our calamity, to thoughtfully explore the multitude of unknowns connected to our daily lives, and to thereby refresh our optimism and our sense of urgency in the reimagining of our existence.”
These new works channel the meditative properties of abstraction pursued by Kandinsky and Malevich, combined with intuitive approaches of accessing higher consciousness which guided Hilma af Klint as well as, much later, artists of Abstract Surrealism such as Gordon Onslow Ford, Roberto Matta, Wolfgang Paalen...

PROM HAIR - Textured Oil Painting w/ Scene of a Girl Preparing for Prom
By Eleanor Aldrich
Located in Signal Mountain, TN
PROM HAIR is an oil on canvas painting created by Eleanor Aldrich in 2022. This piece utilizes a thick caulk on top of the canvas as an underlayment. The texture gives the canvas an over exaggerated "tooth" that adds a sculptural quality to the painting. The scene painted is taken from a magazine in the 90s where someone is preparing a girl's hair from prom night. This piece has a nostalgic quality that is echoed by the rays of light acting as somewhat of a time-warp.
PROM HAIR was featured as part of a two person exhibition with Pamela Jorden...
