Biography

My love of horses and the wild landscape began while growing up in a beautiful southern California valley. The romance of the west and its untouched beauty made a deep impression that I have held close, my entire life.

I studied art and design at California State Long Beach as well as printmaking at Otis/Parsons Art Institute. My interest in art led me to a career representing artists and photographers located in Los Angeles, San Francisco and New York. Then in 1992 I took my first painting workshop with Maurice Larioux in Santa Fe, NM and I was hooked on painting. I continued studying on my own and taking workshops with known artists to learn the art of painting. I have been involved with art for most of my life. Printmaking, fiber-sculpture and graphic design are all part of who I am, but painting is my true love. I look to my previous careers as very important, since they were a molding of different mediums that formed what I do today.

My paintings are representational, oil on canvas, western in theme. You will find horses and cows to be my favorite subjects. If you are interested in purchasing a painting, please email me at andre@ruthandre.com or call 209-267-1135. Master Card, Visa and Discover Cards are available.
