Leo Monahan

About the Work:

Inspired by Bauhaus design and color principles, as well as Japanese and Chinese paper arts, Leo Monahan creates modern masterworks of cut and folded paper.

By cutting, folding, and texturizing paper of various weights, and by superimposing the pieces in dimensional collage, Leo gives the objects in his works a palpability they would not possess depicted on a flat canvas. In an old country kitchen, large spoons lean out from their utensil holder, as if hankering for a cook’s hand. A decaying rowboat poses in fugitive relief against the water that threatens to engulf it. Leo’s use of relief is such that some of his most arresting art is white on white.

Most of Monahan’s works, including the kitchens, are prodigies of color. An object’s relief is often heightened by intense tone. Using hot colors liberally in harmony with a few cooler ones, Leo often achieves some of the effects of an abstract. For example, his bigger- and more-colorful-than-life fishing flies seem intended to lure your inner eye.

In recent years, Leo has also enjoyed exploring the sensuous and emotional power of rusts and earth tones, often in images from his boyhood in the Black Hills of South Dakota.

Leo’s work has appeared in galleries in California and across the Southwest. His work is now in the Grovewood Gallery in Asheville, NC. His pieces are in numerous private collections and the Smithsonian Institution. The Art Academy of Los Angeles held a 40-year retrospective of his compositions. Leo holds a Life Achievement Award from the Los Angeles Society of Illustrators.

Daniel Sulzberg

As a kid I was obsessed with super heroes, Nintendo games, and Saturday morning cartoons. Now, as a grown-up, I’ve been lucky enough to work on projects that contain elements of all three of these obsessions. The results are a blend of traditional and digital media and tend to be whimsical, slightly out of the ordinary, and a little bit off-the-wall.

Denissa Kiehl

Hi! My name is Denissa Ursula Kiehl. Inspiration for my art usually stems from my love for: admiring nature, exploring the world, recalling my childhood memories, and studying the mysteries of life and the universe. My art has a whimsical quality with vibrantly colored details and a varying combination of realistic and fantasy elements, which are based on what would best serve each project. I work with acrylic paint, oil paint, pencils, pastels, Photoshop and mixed media. I am interested in work involving book cover and children’s book illustration, art to be used for children and adult products (such as clothing, school supplies and decorative items, etc.), and mural paintings (see images of my mural series at Edinburg Children’s Hospital below and on my main website).

I am currently based in Los Angeles. If you wish to contact me about my work or a new project, please send an e-mail to: dukworld@att.net . To see more of my artwork visit my main website: www.dukworld-studio.com .
