About Andre
Being a self-taught artist from Port Elizabeth , Andre has worked in multiple art mediums. These range from ceramics , kiln-formed glass and painting. Each of these mediums offer various challenges of manipulation and fabrication.
Implementing certain ideas , thoughts and emotions in the beginning do not necessarily stay that way. He enjoys the surprises of creating work subconsciously sometimes.
His inspiration is drawn from many sources including nature, architecture, metaphors , history, the abstract , places , symbolism , illusion and interpreted in his own way.
Andre started focusing more on creating paintings, working with acrylics and mixed-media on canvas. He aims to capture the beauty , light and spirit of place.
That 'place' being metaphorical and imaginary.
Some of his paintings portray a more contemporary abstract , organic and textured approach with a spontaneous feel. Colour and sweeping brushstrokes all
convey a certain energy to his paintings. Andre allows the viewer to connect and feel these places (emotions) , both real and imaginary . He hopes to portray work
that is intriguing and timeless.
In 2006 he featured on SABC 3 television art and culture show named ' Curious Culture '.
Digital art is a new medium which I'm working in .
Many of Andre's artwork's have been acquired locally and nationally and found
homes to international collectors .
