                        Michele Bonelli is a NYC based artist whose essence 
                        of Art is intrinsically rooted in the process 
                        of art making. It is an introspective methodology incorporating 
                        the conceptual ideas derived from both life experience 
                        and an Undergraduate Degree in Studio Art, an MFA in Painting, 
                        plus numerous years of formal art studies. 
					  While 
						the imagery of Bonellis paintings are intended two-dimensional 
						microcosms of sights, sounds, and rhythms governing an 
						array of subject matter from landscapes to still life 
						expressed in the abstract, they are at their core an ongoing 
						examination and exploration of the principles of the making 
						of 20th Century Abstract Art. The paintings are the product 
						of a synthesis of styles as expressed visually in the 
						contemporary traditions of Pop Art, which evolved from 
						Cubism. What is derived from this process is not about 
						the experience of making art, but rather what comes out 
						of the experience.
