# Bolero

Bolero opens on a field of bright spring green, glowing like light through leaves and softening to a white haze before it meets the silvery grey edges of the panel. On the left, a tall swirl of thick paint turns in on itself in bands of orange, cobalt, mustard and teal, raked into fine ridges that catch the light. Across from it, a pale yellow sunburst throws long, raised rays toward the corner, while two patches of icy blue hold the top and bottom like quiet counterweights.

Colangelo sprayed the green ground first, then dragged and combed the heavier paint across it, letting resin settle into small glassy beads and frosted blue drips run down in short, uneven lines. One of her BLOOM paintings, it moves with the snap and swirl of a dance, the ribbed form turning while the sunburst holds its pose. It brings warmth to a pale oak sideboard in a sunny dining nook or a walnut desk in a sage green study, alongside olive branches, amber glass and terracotta cushions.

### About The Artist Content

Mandie Colangelo is an abstract painter based in Monterey, California. Raised in Arizona, she painted from childhood and wrote music, then built a creative career that moved through fashion, design, jewelry, graphic design and photography. Each chapter sharpened her eye for color, form and material. A season of profound change brought her back to the brush, and painting is now her primary practice.

Working in the abstract expressionist tradition, she builds her surfaces from acrylic, resin, street inks, pigment powders, fabric and, most distinctively, plastic, and treats each painting as an open experiment. Her paintings move between celebration and loss, memory and renewal. As she puts it: "More than anything, I hope my artwork inspires hope, joy, and reflection in those who experience it."
