Rae Andrews
March 1, 2021
7:00pm-Zoom Meeting
Internationally known artist Rae Andrews, who now lives in Austin but hails from Australia, works in all types of art media including watercolor, oil, acrylic and pastel. Her demo next week will be of a beautiful watercolor landscape, and she will answer any and all questions following the demo.
Here is a bit about Rae from her website: “I am highly influenced by color, movement and tonal drama in my art. I got my art degrees in Sydney, Australia, where I also owned a 400-student art school on the northern beaches of Sydney. I also owned two art galleries in Maui, where I lived for 12 years. Art is my passion and has been since my early teens. I work in all genres: landscape, seascape, animal, floral and abstract.”
This is the watercolor that Rae Andrews will demonstrate for the zoom meeting on March 1st.
