Exploring Colour with Andrea Soos
Liquitex AcrylicsAbout This Experience
Join Andrea Soos for a painting demo on experimentation and play!
She will work on multiple pieces, each evolving through spontaneous layering, where bold colours interact and shift unexpectedly. Andrea will experiment with various techniques and explore form, colour, and mark-making. The demo highlights the versatility of Liquitex acrylics and encourages creative freedom in the painting process.
This Opus Art Supplies Victoria event will have a try-it station available! On the event day, participants can explore a selection of event-related materials and gain hands-on experience after the artist's presentation.

About Your Host
Andrea Soos is well known for her playful abstractions that combine creative mark-making, patterning, and gestural application of colour. Working with a fresh modern palette, Soos’ paintings allow the viewer to freely journey around the canvas, enjoying the twists and turns of her engaging compositions.
Soos works intuitively across each canvas, creating unexpected and tactful brushstrokes in her process-driven practice.
Although she may not know the piece's outcome when she begins, the artwork evolves as a visceral and therapeutic practice driven by music and song lyrics. Viewers of Soos’ work connect with the many visual entry points and feel free to apply their own experiences and history to the marks on the canvas.
Soos lives and works in Victoria, British Columbia, where she also trained for her BFA. Soos’ work has been collected across Canada and the USA, and she is working to release a new series of artwork year-round.
