Places are what make me passionate to paint. I’m a traveler. I create with all of my senses. I paint what I see and feel in my heart. Knowing I can transfer energy from my heart to my hands is a magical gift. Knowing I can then share my artistic energy with others is an irreplaceable purpose. So, I am an artist. And I travel. My dreams are my reality. Thank you for being here with me.
Te Amo
Are you ready to walk through the fire with me? I have been painting for many years and each painting develops based on an intense feeling. Something I’ve always felt intensely is love. My heart is huge. In order to come on my art journey with me, I need you to be ready and willing to walk through the fire with me. Let’s go!

Collaboration
This painting was created as a collaborative piece in Union Square, NYC. I draw artists to me through my work and energy and I love it. Work is more meaningful when it’s shared. I am inspired by others and their journeys. Details in this painting such as the orange on the trees and the texture on the island were decided and painted by an artist other than myself. This piece holds a lot of value to me.
Dreaming
I painted this in San Juan, Puerto Rico. I woke up at peace. I woke up looking out of my window at the beach and waves. I woke up to beautiful blues and greens. I woke up to bliss. I woke up where I wanted to be.

Stormy San Juan
This painting showcases the bigger view of the beach I visited in San Juan. The waves and separating sections in the ocean were visually powerful to me and I had wanted to portray that on canvas. The calm feelings that this painting brings me are irreplaceable.

Developmental Diversity
This painting is sentimental in the way that it was created during a time when I was working with the autistic. I found extreme pleasure in helping them learn and with their daily activities. I grew inspired by their creativity and their instinctive desires to be themselves and reflect their feelings in their actions. I found them to be courageous and brave. I aim to be as courageous as them.

Long Island Sunset
I love this place and this painting. I love it so much that I painted it multiple times. There are many places on Long Island that I love to visit because of the water views but here specifically I love because it has the amazing view of the bridge. I could spend hours with this view.
Awakening
This painting is meaningful to me because it opened my eyes to who I was. At times, I’ve been unaware of my personal power and beauty. A peacock is aware fully and showcases this in its feathers. I took a photograph of this peacock at a Zoo in Long Island and truly enjoyed engaging with it.

This painting was inspired by my love for Brooklyn. The energy in all parts of Brooklyn always leaves me wanting more. I love all of the artwork and venues that are made for enjoyment. I can never get bored in Brooklyn and time flies. This painting was created while looking at the beautiful skyline.
Cruise Control
This painting is representative of determination through challenges. It’s easy to give up. It’s hard to stay focused and follow your dreams. Stay the course. Don’t let the wind rock your boat. Stay true to you and reach your destination. Wherever it is. I love the proximity of boats whenever I am on South Beach. They’re beautiful to look at.

Miami Skyline
This painting was created from a photograph during a boat trip in Miami. I felt so free. I felt like myself. I felt like a champion and queen of the sea. These emotions are who I am. I love boating. I love swimming. And I love being with the water. Such a beautiful memory to have and to have been able to replicate into painting form. The views in Miami truly inspire me and I’m grateful to be around them so often. This is where my heart lies.
Self Portrait of Andreana Diaz
I am me. I have always been me. I always will be me. I love posing for pictures. I love painting. And I love myself. I hope you’ve enjoyed learning about the inspiration behind my paintings and potentially even feel inspired enough to create your own artwork. I am an artist. I am - Andreana Diaz.
