Andrew Macara constructs his paintings from light and shadow, always on the fine line between figurative and abstract. Macara calls himself an autodidact. He was born in Derby and studied modern British art for a short time. Critics are positive about Macara's work "His paintings are always an equivalent of light" and "Lightful and full of life" are the prevailing descriptions.
Macara draws the inspiration for his depictions from impressions he finds on his travels. His rows of beaches, snow-covered landscapes or urban scenes let the viewer participate in the white of Greek houses or the colourful life on Indian streets. Again and again the landscape of his home Derbyshire is a motif in Macara's works. Such as the winter pleasure Sparropit, Peak Park with radiant surfaces and cool shadows of winter light. His coastal landscapes are designed in contrast.
The summer life on the coasts, often underlined by boats with red and white sails, lead the viewer into perspective through the colour scheme. The often colourful hustle and bustle on the beach and the lively water make the coastal row a popular collecting area. The distinctive style of the artist ensures a high recognition value and shows contemporary art with character.
