Multidisciplinary artist Andreea Robescu didn’t have much choice but to become an artist. Based in Barcelona, she grew up in a family of artists, experimenting with art during her early childhood. By the age of 12, she had her first group exhibition shocking the audiences with huge canvases of nudes drawn in charcoal.
But nowadays, her art is a far cry from charcoal nudes. Loud, bold, and colorful, she creates powerful visuals using everything from markers to acrylics, pencils, and ink, and sometimes even her bare hands making the whole process a very personal one. As such, her art breaks the boundaries of how the body and facial features are illustrated through the fashion industry. In other words: she likes mixing things up!
But though her work is a vibrant mish-mash of sorts, she herself is much more subdued. “My work is usually very loud, bold, and somehow different from my very chill real-life personality,” she told Adobe’s online magazine. “It probably has to do with the fact that I get bored easily and love to experiment, and I find art to be the perfect way of expressing myself.”
Her energetic illustrations attracted the eye of various global brands and publications. “I’m constantly in a different headspace and love to think three steps ahead, and usually the next project is the most exciting one,” she says. “When working with clients, I really like a good brief, but I also love to come up with new stuff and usually do a bunch of explorations using the tools and colors that I feel work best or will help that specific brand communicate better.”
Take a look at some of her energetic work in the gallery below:
