Audrey Grandinetti
Hello, my name is Audrey and I’m an art instructor at the Art Gallery of Algoma. I’m currently studying in the Creative Industries program at Ryerson University. I love artwork because I think it’s a powerful form of expression which gives us the ability to connect with others and tell stories. I’m a huge fan of pop art and experiential art, and I love to draw. I look forward to meeting you and am excited to create together! |
