Hello and Welcome!
My name is Andrea Moser
I’m a Brisbane-based mixed media artist working primarily with encaustic wax and acrylics from my cozy studio nestled in the city's leafy western suburbs. I love pushing the boundaries of encaustic, a 2,000-year-old medium, to create modern, dynamic works that challenge how we think about this ancient art form. Painting with a blowtorch, I layer wax, pigments, oil paint, and pen drawings, giving my pieces a distinctive tactile quality that's all about texture and depth.
My creative journey has been shaped by my European roots and life in Australia. My diverse background in private business, local government, and entrepreneurship has fuelled my passion for exploring cultural perspectives, identity and belonging and how they shape our understanding of art.
Deconstructed Collection
(Encaustic Wax)
This encaustic wax series is all about how we view the world through our unique lenses. I love to explore how different people connect with the same subject, each bringing their own values, beliefs, and experiences. My paintings in this collection are all about sparking inner dialogue—encouraging you to see multiple perspectives and rethink what you know.
Elements of Life Collection
(Encaustic Wax)
Inspired by the classical elements—fire, water, earth, and air—these encaustic wax and shellac burn works explore the connection between nature and the human experience. I love capturing the cycle of life through flowers and fruits, reminding us of the beauty in growth, change, and the inevitability of decay.
Brisbane Places of Significance Collection (Encaustic Wax)
This mixed-media collection reflects my love for my city, capturing the cultural essence of Brisbane through its iconic landmarks and hidden gems. The encaustic wax adds a layered richness, making each piece a tactile exploration of place, history, and evolving cultural landscapes.
Amroo Acrylic Collection
Bright, uplifting, and full of energy, my acrylic paintings radiate positivity. With expressive lines, bright colours, drips and dynamic patterns, I aim to capture the joy of everyday life and my connection to nature. Each piece is a visual journey meant to lift your spirits.
