Andrea Kittredge
“Dot, my neighbor, is eighty-one and says exactly what she thinks, so when she looked at one of my hill paintings and told me it was Vermont with its glasses off, I wasn't sure how to take it. I've decided it's a compliment. That soft, unfocused October morning, before the maples have made up their minds, is pretty much what I'm after.”

About Andrea
Andrea Kittredge paints from Montpelier, Vermont, where her eighty-one-year-old neighbor Dot once told her that one of her hill paintings looked like Vermont with its glasses off. Andrea decided to take it as a compliment, and it describes her work well. Before she painted full time, she spent years as a museum textile conservator, studying faded threads and fragile weaves up close. That work taught her patience, a respect for how color softens over time, and an eye for the quiet texture inside a surface. She later earned her BFA in Painting from the University of Vermont, and both disciplines show in how carefully she builds a picture.
Andrea works in watercolor on linen-finish cotton paper, letting the slight weave of the sheet catch and break up each wash. Her impressionistic landscapes chase a particular hour: a soft, unfocused October morning, before the maples have made up their minds, when rolling hills and treelines blur into mist and muted gold. Reproduced on canvas, these gentle, airy scenes bring calm to bedrooms, reading nooks, and living rooms, and they suit entryways and home offices that could use a breath of New England countryside. Below are Kittredge’s canvases in our shop, ready to hang.
