Artist Statement
Andrea is an artist who sees potential in common bits and pieces of everyday life, transforming ephemera, vintage papers and found objects into her recognizable artworks. From life experience, sensory memory and the act of gathering, sorting and combining, she finds connectivity. She may collage, assemble or simply use paint to create artworks, letting her intuition guide the process. Pattern, colour and line imbue her works.
Andrea hopes art viewers and collectors respond to the artwork by feeling the emotive nature of her oil painted land/seascape and the nostalgia of her mixed media florals and abstracted artworks.
