Purple Protea

“Among the oldest families of flowers on earth, dating back 300 million years, Greek legend tells us that protea were named after Proteus, the son of Poseidon. With its mythological associations to change and transformation, it’s not surprising that in the language of flowers, protea symbolizes diversity and courage.” - Teleflora

The Purple Protea is Andrews’s 1,000th fine art photo. This artistic feat took him more than 2 years. He created an average of more than 1 work of art a day, artistically photographing objects in and around Los Angeles, California. The creator of CoolColorPhotos, Andrew specializes in creating vibrant colorful photographic art, art that buyers can use to add an instant eyecatching pop of color to any wall or space.

Formerly, Andrew was a high fashion photographer for over 20 years, with over 10,000 fashion photos to his credit. His photos of designer dresses and gowns for 1stdibs dealer, Marilyn Glass, are known worldwide.

In 2019, and during the pandemic, he turned to creating cool colorful fine art photographs of nature; flowers and plants, sky, trees as well as abstract art. Examples of his work can be seen on his website https://coolcolorphotos.com and all his 1,000 works of art can be viewed online at Fine Art America https://fineartamerica. com/profiles/andrewlawrence.

His artist endeavor has been beneficial. According to Andrew, “Fine art photography kept me sane and healthy for 2 years during the Covid pandemic. I went out every day, drove/walked around L.A. taking pictures, then spent time creatively editing the images, all the while avoiding indoor and outdoor groups of possibly contagious people, and I got some excellent exercise walking. I did this every day. I still do it.”

California photographic artist, Andrew Lawrence, has achieved an artistic milestone. He has created his 1,000th work of art.
