Artist Recognition
Artist featured in a collection
The Fiordland crested penguin is one of the rarest of New Zealand’s penguins and is critically threatened. I wanted to show this threat by using the visual metaphor of tsunami waves threatening the birds. The Washi umbrella is symbolic of how fragile and unprotected these birds are from the incoming destruction.

New Zealand
My name is Andrea and I am an artist living in New Zealand. Creating artwork is as important to me as the air that I breathe. It is the language I use to tell my story, to celebrate nature, and to raise awareness of environmental issues. I have a varied approach to my work. I love many styles and mediums and my messages are more important than using the same approach to my work. From stylised realism to illustration, I love it all! Some of my artworks are based on what I see in the natural environment, and some are from my imagination – this way I can create worlds of beauty and activism, which I hope will create cultural conversations around our environment. I love celebrating nature, so I also paint our natural environment to inspire and uplift viewers which I hope will give a feeling of hope and joy. You will find my artwork exhibiting in galleries and shows around New Zealand, and I regularly have artwork exhibiting in on-line international galleries and shows. I am proudly a member of several organisations, I have had a number of articles published, and I am humbled to have won several awards. These can be viewed on my Exhibitions page. I support a number of causes, donating money from my full time job as well as from many of my artworks. Click on my original artworks to see which causes my artwork assists. As an environmental artist my aim is to work in harmony with the natural environment as much as I can. I only use good quality materials, as good brushes can be used repetitively whereas cheap brushes are generally thrown out after a few uses. I use thick canvases and papers, and museum grade paints - as these last anywhere from 75 – 200 years which is more sustainable than using thin canvases and prints that disintegrate or fade after a short time, and are designed to be thrown out. I also use Schmincke medium gel with my oil paints as it allows me to wash out my brushes in water. In this throw-away society I think it is important that our choices are sustainable both in how we work and what we purchase. If you are interested in purchasing an artwork, you can do this directly through my website, or you can find my work in a number of galleries. Thank you for supporting me!
