about the artist -
Andrea Slusarski (she/her) is an artist, educator, and ‘plein air’ sketchbook adventurer based in Colorado. Fascinated by how learning is impacted by Creativity (Flow), her drawing and teaching processes are fueled by this curious study.
what does ‘plein air’ mean?
the term ‘plein air’ is used to describe the process of drawing & painting outdoors.
Inspired by the lines found in nature, Andrea’s sketchbooks are filled with the lines and words connected throughout the landscapes she explores. She’s the creative force behind the Drawing From Nature Studio, which has collaborated with many Colorado and Outdoor Industry based companies - Coalition Snow, Osprey Packs, and Wild Rye to name a few.
Her work has been published in SISU Magazine, 5280, The Art of Education, and Elevation Outdoors voters named her “Best People/Instagrammer” for the Best of the Rockies 2019. Andrea works out of her home studio in Denver, Colorado and is an associate professor of Art Education at Rocky Mountain College of Art & Design.
