Statement:
Andrea’s artworks explore the playful, vibrantly coloured aspects of nature, a satirical view of life and all it’s wonderful creatures. Andrea was born into a family of artists. She and her sister have curated several exhibitions together. Andrea has always been drawn to the aesthetic, choosing careers, which demand a mix of creativity and entrepreneurship, such as Interior design, Fashion and Advertising. Andrea has extensively travelled the world exploring all of its galleries and drawing on these experiences when brush meets canvas. Since 2011 her focus has been drawn back into her art and as such has found herself screen printing in New York, drawing in Paris and exhibiting in Melbourne."
"For two fabulous years Andrea was an understudy to her father, and closely followed his artistic style . In 2013 Andrea Studied at Peninsula Art Society and from 2011 - 2015 Andrea studied with Cheryl Petersen Gallery, Andrea is currently painting at Peninsula Art Space, and her primary medium is acrylic, which suits the vibrancy of her subjects."
"Andrea's work can be viewed at Gallery Sorrento, Tusk Gallery and South Yarra Art House "
