Andre Gascon

Portrait of Andre Gascon

Born and raised in the Niagara Region of Ontario, Andre has always been a determined dreamer with a fear of squirrels and dry ice.

Coincidentally he is a Professional Creative with a background in Graphic Design, Illustration, Fine Art, and a passion for anything aesthetically pleasing.

WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

My subject matter is inspired mostly by life experience and the everyday mundane.

Personal memories and observations are often reflected in heavily textured abstract compositions using mixed acrylic mediums.

IS THERE AN ELEMENT OF ART YOU ENJOY WORKING WITH MOST? WHY?

My creative process is always evolving with a focus on structured surfaces with Industrial connotation.

I’ve always been drawn to the worn and used patina on painted concrete and oxidized metal.

Using traditional and experimental techniques, I try to convey the relaxed, calm deterioration of

nature’s progression.

WHY DO YOU MAKE ART?

My intention in all my works, is to send the viewer on a journey of discovery, while using materials that are not commonly found on a canvas.
