Nicole Monahan is an artist well known for her serene, uplifting, and sometimes humorous Fine Art Paintings and Illustrations. Her work subtly shows the value and balance of nature with the goal to inspire the viewer to seek knowledge, understanding, and to value the way nature works in harmony. We as humans can work with nature in both big and small ways to be a positive part of the web of life.

In her current Fine Art series of painted and etched Bonsai Trees, Nicole Monahan explores the beauty and integrity of aging through nature reflected in the art of Bonsai. Our society can be focused on all things anti-aging. Can we find beauty, wisdom, and valor with age and distress? Trees along the beach or on a mountain top may become very weathered with the challenges they face, yet they become even more beautiful. Bonsai artists work hard to show this beauty of age. It is admired. Perhaps we can find beauty in ourselves and others as we age and are affected by our hardships through time.

To reflect the natural balance of life, age and beauty, this series is created from materials natural to the earth and distressing processes from burning the wood, to earth pigments, and etching with tools.

A Little Further

Each morning we would search for just the right treasure....

....This is part of my Sanibel Florida series. I went there on a family trip with my mom and sister in 2019. Every morning we would walk the beach. The weather was bad, but we kept thinking, "a little further and we will find that special shell". We got rained on a lot with walking just a little further....

Tranquility Within

Part of Nicole Monahan's Water Series. This painting was inspired after a family trip with my mom and sister to Florida's Sanibel Island during red-tide. While our time on Sanibel was beautiful, the devastation on the environment made it all too clear how important our waters are for both physical and emotional wellbeing on so many levels. Sanibel Florida is a very beautiful natural area....

...... they were battling the Red Tide. It had devistated the area for fishing which means both humans and animals were affected deaply and were having a hard time recovering.

What Lies Beneath

The storm came with wind howeling and rain pelting.....

......We had a cute little room right along the ocean front so we could hear the waves crashing all night. Dispite the storm, I slept on the porch to take it all in. I find storms relaxing especially when you can hear waves. In the morning, the storm had subsided and all was calm despite the dark ominous clouds. Below the waves, beauitiful creatures took refuge to brace against the next storm on the horizan.

Almost There

Sea Turtles nest from April through October On Sanibel Island.....

...... and our hotel had signs up for a curfew due to the nesting season. If we had been there during nesting season, we would have had to be inside with the lights out by 11pm so they can nest in peace. I'm so happy they do that for the turtles! They really need every chance they can for survival. I'm cheering on every little turtle who is trucking as fast as they can to the ocean! It is hard even without human interferrance. Sadly, we didn't see any Sea Turtles on our visit, but we did come across a huge tourtois walking across the road. They can smell where they are going for 3 miles and will just walk in a straight line until they get there with no bother to humans at all.

Afternoon Reflections

Sandpipers walk along the beach looking for tasty treats.....

Moment In Thought

Barred Owls may be one of the more common owls.....

$950
...... but it doesn't make them any less special in my book. I will never forget the first time I heard a barred owl hunting call in the middle of the black night as I walked out to my studio. It sounded a bit like a ghost about 5 feet above my head. Not a comforting sound when you don't know its an owl! I do love seeing them during the day quietly sitting so magestically just outside my studio.

Bee The Change

Many people talk about the enviroment and what is wrong.....

......what needs to change, how sad or upsetting the state of the environmental world is in, but how many people actually make an effort to change their lifestyle choices to help in any little way they can? You can. Bee The Change, help bees and all the critters of the world have a chance at life and so we can also have a chance to thrive.
