About this artwork
Full Moon and Hubble 101 are similar size square shaped pieces in the Outer Space series. Created while examining the night sky in the Catskill Mountains in Upstate New York. This series was originally commissioned by a New York Art dealer who came for a studio visit bearing several black canvas scraps and a large circular sign and asked if I wanted them. Ironically I was initiating the upstate Catskill Mountain retreat at the time and was initiating…
the Night Sky series because of my new found appreciation of the night sky up there and had I began to reexamine it.

« 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.
