about the Artist

Andrew Meredith: Artist Statement

“My artistic presence can be found in the skies of my paintings. My subjects follow the moods of light, from where the painting takes shape. I work from photos taken from daily life and my adventures. Before any paint is put on the canvas, quick sketches are done to find the right placement and space. I use acrylics to create my colourful art. For as long as I can remember, painting has been a part of my life.”
