In Study & ReverenceA Solo Exhibition by artist and educator Andrea Poole
Formato Fine Arts is pleased to present In Study & Reverence, a solo exhibition of new work by Southwest Virginia artist and educator Andrea Poole.
Rooted in a deep respect for art history, Poole’s paintings draw from the visual language of master artists while transforming their influence into something distinctly her own. Through vibrant color, expressive mark-making, and a balance between realism and abstraction, her work explores themes of nature, place, and emotional reflection.
As both a practicing artist and elementary school art teacher, Poole approaches painting as an act of both learning and devotion. Referencing iconic works not as replicas but as tools, she reinterprets familiar imagery through a personal lens, allowing feeling and memory to guide the outcome.
Her multidisciplinary practice spans oil, pastel, charcoal, acrylic, and watercolor, with subjects ranging from figure and animal studies to landscapes, collage, and woven elements. Each piece reflects a quiet dialogue between past and present, study and intuition.
Join us for an exhibition that honors tradition while embracing individual expression.
