Artist Profile

Playful and whimsical, Anderson’s pieces depict imagery that is personal yet common, familiar yet ambiguous. The images in the work present a kind of stream of consciousness that reminds the viewer of many things at once: childhood dreams, signs and symbols, fold tales and home life. The deliberately raw finish of the pieces celebrate the honesty of both material and process.
