Andrea Peterson

Photo of Andrea PetersonAndrea Peterson creates imaginative figure and animal paintings inspired by narratives and nature.  Her latest prism paintings take everyday subject matter and scenes and applies a contemporary cubist-like style to them.  The idea came about from seeing her own paintings leaning behind a large piece of stained  glass.  Creating stained glass was a favorite hobby of her grandfather, of which she now owns some remnants of these colorful windows.  Applying this prism-like style to her oil paintings in triangular  patches of color that make up the entire canvas she creates a  kaleidoscope-type image, where the viewer can feel like they are happening  upon a special moment in time.
