Bio

meI have been painting Mayan Art, custom fabrics and furniture in the Mayan Riviera for 17 years. I started with silk painting in Club Med Resorts and found I had an eye for color. I spent the next few years painting and experimenting with scarves and sarongs and then moved on to wall hangings. As soon as I moved to mexico, I was blessed with finding a large, vaulted art studio in the all-inclusive 5 star hotel chain Robinson Club Tulum,  On the beautiful beach of Xpu-Ha, which is located in between  Playa del Carmen and Tulum. After 12 years  the hotel changed to Club Maeva Resorts.   I was the in house artist for the guests. When the hotel was bought by the Palace Resorts chain, the hotel closed.

Now I am painting out of my home, and giving classes to the locals and tourists in their homes or condos. If your visiting Puerto Aventuras you may see me out by the marina painting and enjoying the fabulous views. Please stop to say hello.

    Hi Andrea:
    Your name came to me suddenly and on a whim today, I googled your name to see what you could be doing 25 years from when I first met you in Calgary. My last name then was Merritt and we met while working at My Marvins.

    Your website indicates that you have been honing your craft and enjoying a beautiful lifestyle. Your photo tells me that you haven’t aged a bit.

    I’ve left an email address in case you want to get in touch.

    Be well and best regards,

    Cate

    Hi Andrea, I just looked at all your work and I was very impressed and inspired. I would like to get together with you with an idea I have, and am also interested in your wall hangings and maybe pillows for my new place
