# Caprice

Two broad pools of glossy navy tumble across Caprice in opposite directions, as if a playful wind had tossed them about. Around each one, tangerine, lemon, magenta and turquoise flare out in bright trails, and pale sky blue runs alongside in thin, bubbly rivulets. At the center the pours stretch into ribbons that cross a seam, where blocks of warm, honey-toned ground meet at quiet angles.

Colangelo poured with abandon and let the color slide and break wherever it wished, leaving the paint thick and shiny, full of small bubbles and soft, rounded edges. The honey ground stays open around it, which gives the movement room and keeps the palette fresh rather than loud. From her BLOOM series, it is a work of pure spontaneity, light on its feet and quietly mischievous. Its vertical format suits an entryway or the wall above a long sideboard, and navy upholstery or warm brass will echo it nicely.

### 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."
