A graduate of the Ontario College of Art, Andrew paints exclusively with molten “encaustic” beeswax, incorporating other mediums. Luminous textures bring the viewer into an organic landscape unlike any other. His masterful paintings move naturally from two dimensions to three, from reality to colourful imagination, often echoing the fluidity of landscapes in The County. His works create a focal point and spark great conversation in one’s home or office. An exciting renaissance of this ancient “encaustic beeswax technique” has been growing with excitement. His sculptural paintings can be seen in his magnificent century-old BARN Gallery and new ANDARA Gallery also located onsite in the heart of Prince Edward County. Encaustic Painting workshops and gift certificates available. The Studio and Galleries are located minutes NW of the village of Bloomfield; first road north of Huff Estates Inn & Winery in the heart of Prince Edward County wine country.

I took Andrew’s 2 day encaustic workshop with a couple of friends. It was a great weekend! We learned so many different encaustic techniques and ended up leaving on Sunday with a bunch of our own new works of art. Andrew and his wife are very friendly and easy going. The property and Galleries are beautiful. Definitely a place to visit!

Stumbled upon the Love Nest Studio on our drive through Prince Edward County. Andrew gave us a great tour of Tara's studio as well as the barn where his work is displayed. Very interesting to hear their story and his process for creating his beautiful pieces of art. Will definitely recommend stopping in to anyone in the area!

Both my wife and I shop at The Farmer's Market throughout the summer. Great local produce and located about 10 minutes walk from our home. All of the products sold here are from Prince Edward County and are local grown by our own farmers that we know and communicate with. The Wellington Farmer's Market is set up right in the Wellington United Church's parking lot which overlooks onto some beautiful grounds right on Lake Ontario. New products are introduced weekly and there is quite a selection of goods that one can sample from the many stalls located in this market. Great food and freshly grown right from the garden and delivered fresh to this spectacular market. This is a must to see and try along with the other interesting things that also transpire in the park adjacent to it. Parking is adequate and you get to meet the farmer who not only grows the product but sells it at this awesome market.

Our small batch, dry cider is made from apples pressed on site at harvest time when the fruit is full of flavour and then allowed to mature until Spring. Our family orchard, planted with cider and heritage apple varieties, is set in the beautiful countryside near Wellington, Prince Edward County. You’re welcome to relax at our cidery and enjoy a glass with the view.

Three of my girlfriends and myself rode bikes to loch Mor Cider Co, for my birthday this weekend. The staff was friendly, welcoming and had excellent service. The cider flight was a fun way to taste the different and delicious cider types! We also ordered some snacks which were tasty and helped fuel us for our next ride. Overall it was a wonderful experience and I’d love to go back when I am in Picton next.

Two unique art galleries in the heart of Prince Edward County! A renovated century-old BARN Gallery and our newly constructed contemporary ANDARA gallery. Creativity and beauty is alive here. Fine art works in encaustic, photography, fibre and more. Book a painting workshop (or rent our cozy guest suite set to reopen post COVID).

While in Prince Edward County, my husband and I visited Andara Gallery on the recommendation of many. We're so glad we did! We were greeted by Andrew, one of the two artists displaying work in the uniquely striped gallery. He kindly explained the techniques of encaustic painting (his work) and also talked about the other artist's equally impressive photographic work (his wife's). In addition, we toured his century barn which was a treasure-trove of their work. We were charmed both by the art and by Andrew's personality and would highly recommend a visit and/or a hands-on workshop.
