I made this artwork after reading too many artist's statements. I decided there is far too much pollution, both visual and verbal within the arts! As my way of countering this, I tore up three of my drawings that were a bit pedestrian, and tried to make something better from them.
The collage is a copy of an earlier work : https://bluethumb.com.au/andrewstattmann/Artwork/interior-with-landscape-after-whiteley
It is designed to work from a distance(optical blending) and to be less resolved up close. Zoom in to see, big screen works best if you have one.
This artwork was my entry in the Lethbridge Landscape Prize 2023, where it was sold.
Made with artist quality materials on Magnani paper. Framed in raw Tasmanian oak. The golden retriever is of a normal size.

Artwork Description
Artist Bio
Andrew is an Adelaide Hills resident who primarily draws landscapes, but also interiors and still lifes. He works in the en plein air tradition (outdoors), and is always entertained by the side of the road chats he has with passersby who wonder what he's doing. Among other things, he has been mistaken for a stalker, a burglar, and an inspector from the water board.
Andrew graduated from North Adelaide School of Art in 1998, and has exhibited since winning the Novice Section of the Balaklava Art Prize in 1994. He has a long association with the Hahndorf Academy, winning numerous prizes, including the Heysen Prize for landscape in 1999 and more recently was Highly Commended in the Adelaide Hills Landscape Art Prize. He was also pleased to be invited to exhibit in the 2019 Kedumba Drawing Award.
He is primarily concerned with line, and has been known to spend hours constructing a drawing as a background for a nice shaped line.
Studio visits can be arranged if you’d like a better look at the work.
Andrew is able to undertake commissions and can be contacted through Bluethumb.
