Audree Grand'Pierre started taking art classes at four years old to explore her natural curiosity for visual arts. Her studies led her to Florence, Italy where she deepened her understanding of art history and improved her skills in studio art. Her passion for both art and the human psyche is why she loves focusing on narrative pieces that work to depict raw human experiences. Specifically, her paintings highlight the emotions and perspectives of Black individuals in order to create a space for these stories to be shared. She is on her 17th year of training.
