Born in Melbourne, and based in Los Angeles, Andrew Taylor creates subtle, engaging and powerful paintings which draw upon the natural world. Each canvas is testament to the artist’s enduring interest in recording the rapidly moving world around him in the most still manner possible. Though the artist works in response to intensity of contemporary society, Taylor’s work is neither nihilistic nor pessimistic. Rather, the canvasses celebrate what is wonderful and possible in the twenty-first century - the movement of materials and species across continents.

Andrew Taylor has shown widely throughout Australia, where he is represented by the Tim Olsen Gallery in Sydney. His work is several public collections including the National Gallery of Victoria, Shepparton Art Gallery, Art Bank Australia, the Telstra Collection at the Australian National University in Canberra and in several high profile private collections in Australia, USA and France.
