About Me.

Andrew Ürge

ARTIST

Born in Hungary in 1943 emigrated to Australia 1957 

 

His talent for Art was evident as a young student. He impressed the critics in school and, community level, won many prizes.

 

Studied Art --- at East Sydney Technical College.

Stott Correspondent College

 

He begin painting as a traditional painter in oils and water-colour and in recent times, explored new styles and methods in painting such as contemporary and abstract.  These methods allowed him to experiment new ways of using the paint and, and learning the magic of what painting is all about.   Such is the theory that what the artist puts on the canvas is not determined by the hand and the brush alone, but the mixing of paint on the canvas - thus the paint works for you, and that's brings the final result.
