Artist Statement:
My name is Ana Monaghan, and I paint wherever there is an opportunity. I spend a lot of time in both Hawaii and Japan. Much of my art is done out of doors, while directly viewing the subject (on location, called plein-air art).
I wish to idealize every separate island in the Pacific region, and show the local people and scenery in their native beauty. I am currently offering my art to hotels in the Pacific and Caribbean regions. I have travelled 30 countries.
Recently, I was commissioned by Norwegian Cruise Lines (NCL) to produce some art for their new liner, The Pride of Hawaii. The project was comprised of 16 large works: Polynesian people and island scenes of my choosing. Many of the paintings are about 6 feet square. I had about 10 weeks to do this project.
Last I heard, an original Gauguin painting is being shown with my work.
Would you like to own some of this art? Giclees of the same size are available. I retouch giclees to appear as originals. Have a cruise line original in your living room-- same size and with fresh application of paint, upon request.
I also do commissioned works...
