ANDREW CSAFORDI I GESTURES COLLECTION
Fine Art Encaustic Paintings
|
While some artists paint in silence and solitude, painting with music is a big part of Andrew’s process. For his GESTURES collection, Andrew turned up the volume on a wide range of music playing in his studio. His paintings are often influenced by the ((loud)) and wide range of music he listens to. For example, the energy of classical music is different from the energy of rock music.
GESTURES is a brave approach to impressionist-style landscapes intertwined with abstraction. The collection reflects a maturity that’s evolved from over 20 years of working in encaustic while still holding on to his explorative nature. A fusion of layers of colourful beeswax with mixed media on wood panels, each painting is a harmony of bold gestures and carefully applied details. Andrew and the wax are a team working together, pulling and pushing. Working back and forth across the board with gestures of energy and imagination, Andrew sculpts the wax with brushes and various heated tools - the semi-translucent layers slowly reveal their secrets. |
“Painting is an evolutionary process where there is an ongoing dialogue with the beeswax medium – adding and subtracting, altering the painting as it evolves … every step of the way.” |

Another Five Star Review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
So glad we stopped here on our trip! The gallery is absolutely incredible and getting to meet the artist himself and hearing about his process of making the art with beeswax was great. A hidden gem for sure. We spent quite a while talking with him about different local stops he recommended and the history of this process. A. Doucet |
