“Bloom & Sigh” by Anna Curnes and Melanie M Brannan.

Art looks back and it looks forward in time. This piece encapsulates that perfectly.

As both an ode to Monet’s garden and a refined contemporary artwork, it’s a unique addition to any art collection or space.

The artists themselves shared, “Anna's unique glasswork meets Melanie's signature Impressionist brushstrokes, creating a vibrant fusion of color, texture, and dimension.”

Now available to see at ALG Fine Art. View our Summer Hang at 1302 Dragon St. Wednesday to Saturday, 11 am to 4 pm. Acquire online through our website.

“In a Land of Hope and Dreams” by Melanie Brannan.

37.5W x 29.5H x 5D"

Acrylic on Wood Panels

Landscape art like you’ve never seen before. “In a Land of Hopes and Dreams” is part of Melanie’s parametric series, bringing a new perspective to fine art.

When giving us insight into her method, Melanie shared, “The process requires sustained attention, patience, and a willingness to surrender control to the physical logic of the structure. Each brush stroke must account for movement, light, and spatial rhythm, transforming the act of painting into a dialogue between intention and unpredictability.
Through this labor-intensive approach, the work becomes more than a flat image. It becomes an experience shaped by time, perception, and presence.”

A multi-dimensional piece like this is best appreciated in person.

“Shine Through V” by Kaitlin Merchant.

24W x 36H"

Oil on Canvas in a Wood Frame

This piece encourages us all to look up, not only to see the beauty of the sky but also to experience the therapeutic effects of an upward glance.

When reflecting on this artwork, Kaitlin shared, “The act of looking up activates dopamine. Neuroscientists refer to it as the ‘molecule of more.’ Dopamine helps us achieve those dreams.”

The feeling of looking at “Shine Through V” is a mix of nostalgia for the past and optimism for the future. Experience it fully by viewing it at the gallery.

Now available to see at ALG Fine Art. View our Summer Hang at 1302 Dragon St. Wednesday to Saturday, 11 am to 4 pm. Acquire online through our website.
