La Carga II Painting

Artist Andrea Dopaso was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Attracted by the imaginary worlds created by the film industry, Andrea moved to Los Angeles in 1990, where she resides today. It wasn't long before she expanded her career, working as Concept Illustrator on such major motion pictures as Jungle Book, Guardians of the Galaxy and Life of Pi. Discovered her vocation and love for painting when she was 6 years old. At age 15, she began studying with master Anselmo Piccoli, a well-established constructivism and geometric painter, who quickly became her mentor. She studied under Mr. Piccoli's tutelage for almost a decade. She also received her master of Architecture and Urban design (1989) Universidad Nacional de Buenos Aires Hollywood gave her the opportunity to combine her love for painting and drawing with her love for architecture, and it provided the funding for her to create the incredible. Andrea's work tries to explore the paradoxes of human spirituality and it's delusions of dualism and separation. In her own words: "Immersed in a make believe world, your dreams become limitless, and the contrast with the real world self-evident." "On the inside everything is possible, on the outside chaos and uncertainty seem to be driving our civilization to the blink of destruction."
