Artist Andrew Wayne McLester

Artist Statment: I'm a dedicated life long painter. My art fuels my soul and keeps me sane. I'm very influenced by the Bay Area Figurative Movement and I work a lot with figures in imaginary landscapes as I build a narrative structure/world that evolves organically as the years pass by.

Why Are You A Good Fit for this Program? I'm a local in the Sunset going on 20 years. I'm also a dedicated surfer and Ocean Beach is my home. I also own and operate a small independent wine sales company here in the Outer Sunset.
