About

​

BIO

Andrea was born one of four daughters in Berwyn, IL to Lithuanian American parents and worked in various creative fields while living as young adult in Chicago. Her inspiration to paint emerged from unexpected paths, namely that of a spiritual one after the birth of her son in 1998, when she put her first image on canvas. From then to now, she has created several mini series that often times embrace tongue-in-cheek humor and sensuality. 

​

ARTIST STATEMENT

Andrea is inspired by the colors of Fauvism used by Matisse or as late as Peter Max, the pointillism of Paul Signac, and the surrealism of Frida Kahlo. The patterns and designs of Mexico, South America, Africa, and

Japan have and still are a heavy influence in her work.

All her paintings develop through a solid control of her paintbrush and mix of acrylic hues. She focuses on bursts of color with concentration on shapes and lines, rendering a smooth, flat finish to the final painting.
