Artist Bio:
Gianna Andrews is a contemporary fine artist inspired by her love for the natural world. Whimsical elements mixed with bold lines and colorful expressions flow from the canvas in her acrylic paintings. Her signature style comes to life not only on large-scale canvases but also on salvaged wood pieces and other unique mediums.
While receiving a bachelor’s degree in environmental studies at Montana State University, Gianna sustained a mountain biking accident and broke her back. Confined to a clamshell brace for months, Gianna tapped into a hidden talent and discovered how to synthesize her love for the outdoors with creativity. This served as the foundation for an unexpected career as an artist.
Gianna’s work gained attention with a growing social media following and has been featured in collaborations with brands such as Lib Tech, Alaska Heli Skiing, Stanley, Outside Inc., 10 Barrel Brewing, Juneshine, Joe Chocolate, Sierra Nevada Brewing and more.
By sharing her art with the world, Gianna hopes to inspire others to reach for their dreams while protecting this planet we call home.
