New York based Matt Mignanelli works in acrylic on panel to portray humorous characters within everyday situations. “I like to, in a lot of work, leave it open to the viewer to let the imagination run,” says Mignanelli. “With subtle but prominent overtones. I think it would take away from the piece if everything is showing. It allows people to relate to the piece and project themselves onto it, what they want to see in the piece.”

Clients include Camel Cigarettes, Easy Jet Airlines, Richmond Guide, Honolulu Magazine, Real Detroit Weekly, The Inlander, Rochester Insider, Sojourners Magazine, CSO Magazine, The Dubliner (Ireland), Disability Now (U.K.). He graduated with a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design.
