Monica Carlisle: The Art of Sound: A Musical Instrument Showcase

Artist Statement

My work is a reflection of the journey that life has taken me on, where each brushstroke speaks to the moments, people, and landscapes that have shaped my existence. This collection is deeply personal, inspired by the richness of my family and the experiences gathered from my travels.

I explore the harmony between music and nature, finding parallels between the contours of musical instruments and the curves of mountain ranges. Both resonate with their own unique rhythms--one through sounds, the other through silence. In these paintings, I aim to capture that symphony, intertwining the beauty of nature with the soul of music.

Through color and form, I invite you to step into these spaces with me--to feel the pulse of a well-loved instrument, and the warmth of memories that continue to echo through time. –Monica Carlisle
