Andrea Colman

Bio for Andrea Ursula Colman, birthday August 7, 1966.

I knew everything when I was a teenager, started to know less in my 20's, began to forget the things I thought I knew in my 30's and now that I'm in my 40's I realize I know practically nothing about anything and the more I learn the less I actually know! The best part is that I'm O.K. with that.

I'm comfortable with paradox, ambiguity and spontaneity. Of course I live in the NOW whenever I'm not thinking about the past or future, but I'm trying to get over that. I have friends, good, true friends, both conservative and liberal, Christian, Jew, Pagan, Wiccan and agnostic. I like to think I build bridges, not fences and I find good in all.

I embrace hardship and challenges with gratitude as I see them as the greater gifts from God or The Universe or Whatever. These are always the best lessons for advancing our souls if we can learn them otherwise we will just continue to get hit over the head with the same problems 'til we 'GET IT'. It's only my opinion, but so far it works for me.

I'm a painter who doesn't paint with the exception of windows & walls, a writer who does not write with the exception of bills and bios, and a gardener who plants seed and forgets to water them, yet who grows the best damn weeds.

I've been a sign carver, a draftsman, a designer, an entrepreneur and a host of other unrelated creative ventures. I've worked in oils, water color, acrylic, stained glass, found object mixed media, collage and landscape design.

I'm a bit of an intellectual linguist, a creativity and life coach and an abstract thinker.

Oh yeah, lastly and very cool, I'm officially in a 'Curiosities of New York'! It comes out in bookstores in August. I love being odd, it totally pisses off my family!
