About this artwork
Barred Owls 101 is a piece that goes into further exploration of Monaghan taking his abstract black and white works and placing a recognizable figure at their center. This process started with Monaghan's Shark 101 painting and has now expanded into this series of Birds of Prey. The texture was created with egg shells which have been a central part of his work.

« My work is about finding what exists in the accidental or random, finding inspiration in the dance, and celebration of the practice. This is my making process. »
Todd Monaghan explores spontaneous intuition and the subconscious mind through 'flicking, spilling, dripping, and scraping' paint into multi-layered, textural, and immersive works. The American painter and sculptor's pieces are created through impulsive movements that welcome chance and experimentation. Monaghan does not paint using an easel, instead preferring to pin his canvases to the walls of his studio. He places them on the floor and back onto the walls, searching for new discoveries every time.
