Biography

andrea farmer contemporary art

Born in Essex, England, and presently living in Chelmsford, Andrea Farmer graduated from the Kent Institute of Art and Design in 1993 with a HND in Graphic Design and Illustration.

Landscape painting is Andrea’s passion. The ethereal, coastal and Mediterranean landscape collections are inspired by her love of landscape, nature and travel - themes that reoccur throughout her work. She favours a vivid use of colour - oil, ink and mixed media are her preferred mediums. Gold and silver leaf also feature in many of her artworks adding opulence to her unique style of painting.

Andrea's paintings are held in collections worldwide. She is happy to consider commissions.

ethereal and coastal landscape
The ethereal landscape paintings focus on the British rural and coastal landscape. In particular, the way that light across the land creates abstract patterns, reflections and movement causing changes to perceived colour vision. These paintings have a glowing, sometimes hazy effect with opulent colours and evocative forms that melt into one another, creating an ethereal atmosphere.

mediterranean landscape
The Mediterranean landscape paintings focus on the Mediterranean rural and coastal landscape. These paintings have an atmospheric, sometimes hazy effect with opulent colours and evocative forms that melt into one another, creating positive memories of places visited.

expressive abstract
The expressive abstract paintings are an expression manifested from the mind - an alternative and sometimes passionate, obscure and twisted view representing personal matters, feelings and emotion with regards to everyday objects in the natural world around us. Popular with private and corporate collectors alike, these paintings are vivid and energetic with sweeping strokes, precise mark making and visual impact.

floral landscape/still life
The semi-abstract floral and still life paintings aim to capture Andrea’s love of flora and nature. These artworks feature flowers or plants in the landscape or in vases or vessels. The texture and shape of the flowers are rendered in rich oil colour with expressive brush strokes and intricacies of pattern with texture and mixed media. The still life empty vessel paintings concentrate on semi-abstract, figurative, simple forms with uncrowded space and unfussy lines.
