About the Item
Melissa Ellis’s work investigates the expressive and sensory possibilities of color through abstract sculptural oil painting. Built through layers of pigment and texture, her paintings balance spontaneity and control, revealing shifting tonalities that suggest rhythm, atmosphere, and depth. Through her process, Ellis explores how color interacts with light and how subtle variations can evoke movement within stillness. Her paintings are both tactile and luminous, transforming as light moves across their surfaces.
Ellis lives and works in Marfa, TX. She earned her bachelor’s degree in Art History from the Louisiana State University and later attended the Chateaux Orquevaux Artist Residency, in Orquevaux, France. Her work has been exhibited extensively throughout Texas and in prominent private and corporate collections nationwide including Louis Vuitton, BeautyBio, Scottish Rite Hospitals, Texas Health Resources, and Paul Martin’s American Grill, among others.

Teller 3
By Frank Arnold
Located in Fresno, CA
"Teller 3" Oil on Canvas presents a singular form and background in varying shades of green, blue, yellow and white and eart tones.
Frank Arnold is viewed as one of the foremost abstract figurative painters and sculptors of our time. He is a living master guided by a personal mission to “turn on a light in the human soul,” through his passionate creation of “Messengers” from his deeper mind connection with Carl Jung's archetypal images, the collective unconscious, and Jungian Synchronicity. These unconscious forms from his deeper mind resonate as personal messages of universal acceptance, reaching out to the viewer.
Arnold has been honored as IAD Artist of the year 2018 by International Artist Day, and 2013 FAC Horizon Artist Award. He has exhibited his artwork in numerous galleries and museums and is in collections worldwide. Arnold divides his working days between oil painting in San Jose del Cabo, Baja Sur...
