For the Most Art

Andrea Heimer’s Pop Art

Exhibit A: You scarfing free fromage.
Exhibit B: Someone mistaking your drunken rant for performance art.
Exhibit C: You mistaking the sculptor’s work for a chair.

Evidence suggests that you’ve made your mark on the art scene.

Perhaps it’s time to stay home and contemplate painter Andrea Heimer. Her eclectic works range from bold mixed-media pop portraits and smeared painterly renditions of saints to the pared-down Coveted series of ink drawings that evoke quieter thoughts.

Each piece is pulled together by a reverence for pop culture, bold lines, and fearless color — all of which are sure to attract attention while playing it cool.

Which, frankly, is an area where you could stand to brush up.
