Holy subtlety. I don't know if I've ever seen anything as delicate, as light, as soft, and yet, as clear and quietly powerful as the work of today's featured artist, Alex Hanna. The man knows his skill set and is not afraid to use it. He has mastered the art of quiet paintings, and in my opinion, he has churned out nothing but gorgeous and successful pieces in his signature restrained, hushed tones. I hope that in viewing them, you'll find Hanna'a paintings to be as soothing and relaxing as I do (I just want to crawl into his pink pillow paintings and take a little nap!). Now lets take a look... Aren't they incredible? Just looking at his work makes me want to forget about color and turn my focus to the power of neutrals and soft pastels. Wow.
If you want to check out more of Hanna's work, hop on over to his website or his online portfolio (where you can buy his originals). Oh, and guess what? Hanna is a yogi, too! Yippeee! Maybe that's why his paintings have such a focused, meditative quality ;) I hope your Wednesday is a calm and quiet one. I think we could all use a little more softness and silence in our daily lives...

Oh wow, thanks! Very sweet of you to say :)
Hi, Mary Catherine! So delighted to have found my way to your hoppin' website. I love this, too. It 'subtly' reminds me of one of my favorite local artists, Teresa Oaxaca. Are you familiar with her? She has a painting journal at teresaoaxaca.blogspot.com and she wears knockout dresses! I've a feeling you'll like her work, too.

Shoot! I just sent three bags of dresses to Goodwill. Had to get rid of them fast, but I there must be some left that you can maybe borrow?
