Moderna Simplicita

Canvas Size: 10" x 12"
Medium: Acrylic
Surface: Canvas
Style: Abstract


This painting is aesthetically inspired by my keen interest in the folk arts of Mexico and India, particularly in the intensity of their color palettes and their detailed patterns. This painting combines my love for tribal art with a contemporary urban aesthetic resulting in a fresh, vibrant abstract style that expresses the complexity and multiplicity of modern life through a youthful and jubilant perspective. Through the frenetic juxtaposition and overlap of colors and patterns, I create a sense of energy and exuberance on the surface that immediately transforms the atmosphere of any room into one of exotic festivity. This piece resonates with themes of springtime, rejuvenation, and growth. The sides are painted to match the front, so there is no need for a frame - and this piece may be hung with any side facing up!

This piece is SOLD.

Marble Reflections

Size: 8" x 10" - Standard size for easy framing!
Medium: Prismacolor Colored Pencils
Surface: Acid-Free Archival Strathmore Artagain Paper
Style: Photorealism / Realism
Artist: Thaneeya McArdle

This photorealistic drawing depicts a variety of colorful marbles inside a glass tumbler. The marbles and tumbler were rendered in a tight photorealistic style (see close-up below). The shadow is done in a realistic yet slightly more expressive hand, conveying the fleeting and temporary nature of light and shadow. My conceptual interest in this piece lies in the contrast between the tactilely solid nature of the marbles and glass, juxtaposed against the soft and feathery forms of the shadows.

A border has been left around the edges of the paper to make for easy matting and framing.
