Kit Andrews

I am a Melbourne-based artist currently studying the Advanced Diploma in Visual Arts with Latrobe College of Art and Design in Collingwood.
I was brought up under the pale skies of eastern-England and am fascinated by the contrast to the more saturated Australian light as well as places I have been in my travels, hence my favourite subjects are littoral scenes of sky, sea and land. I also like portraits where I can explore the subtleties of skin tones and expression.
I enjoy working quite fast with pastels, sometimes also with oil paint, and among my favourite artists are John Constable, especially his sketches of clouds, and Edgar Degas who used pastels in such a dynamic way.
