Ranna's
most recent work moves to evanescent dialogue among ground,
line, and plane:


Magical Work
from Ranna's Studio.
Hovering
in the picture plane, secret breaths of color whisper phantasms
of figure and ground among fields of white, which itself plays
with its own reality - is it white, is it grey, blue... something
else?

Ranna's
own words
"I
love art making"
Ranna and contemporary art - (yes, the obligatory
art-speak)
Ranna®
is a contemporary artist who has been dedicated to her work
since the 1970s.
These
days, she divides her professional and private life almost
equally between the U.S.A. and Australia, producing studio-based
art work and large scale ex-stallation projects (installations
outdoors). Click here for a summary of Ranna's
art projects at both locations.
Ranna's
art work defies convenient categorization
and pushes contemporary art into new territory technically,
conceptually, and visually. Ignoring trendy art world fashions
and expectations, her creativity has led to ethereal cutting
edge contemporary art that embraces the brush, the world around
her, and contemporary industrial materials, all signature
to her "Shimmer Art™ " method. Ranna has lived
and worked in NSW Australia, Townsville and Brisbane Australia,
Virginia USA, and Tokyo Japan. She has exhibited in contemporary
art galleries and museums in Australia,
Japan, Europe, and the U.S.A. and "has produced a prodigious
and significant body of work" *
