about andrea

(b. 1984) Rochester, New York

The human experience can so often feel isolating and disconnected, especially in these days of hyper productivity. I am interested in reawakening our wonder and universal connectivity through both intimate personal encounters and shared celebratory moments. Pulling on my background as an art therapist, my work reflects on the connection between our inner and outer worlds and the vibrant hope that lies within.

Creating in watercolor, acrylic, ceramic and animation, my current work fuses landscape, flora and fauna with the human figure, while also extending into the realm of live experiential art. Whether sweeping landscapes embedded with figures, intimate scenes of quiet moments, or paintings that emerge in real-time during life's most sacred gatherings, I hope to encourage viewers to recognize the sacred within themselves, the mundane, and their relationships.

My practice encompasses both solitary studio work and collaborative live painting experiences—from capturing the ethereal atmosphere of celebrations through plein air landscapes filled with hidden symbolism, to holding intimate space for individuals to explore their inner goddess through intuitive portrait sessions. In these live encounters, art becomes a bridge between souls, transforming personal moments and communal celebrations into lasting talismans of connection and meaning.

These works are an offering of land in which one can take a quiet walk, find light, and connect—whether through contemplating a finished piece in your sacred space, witnessing a painting come to life during a cherished event, or sitting with me as your personal story unfolds in watercolor. Each creation serves as a reminder that magic exists in both our individual journeys and our shared human experiences, inviting us back to wonder and to each other.
