Welcome 2022!

There is a collective holding of the breath and a nervousness in the air after tornadoes, Covid variant, and the holidays. There are plans for several projects with Warren County Schools in Kentucky, several projects with Arts For All Kentucky, lots of private commissions and commercial projects coming! I am thankful and grateful!

All the best to you and yours in 2022!

Tornado Relief Print

I know we are all living on tight budgets right now. This tornado relief print will be here for you and the proceeds go to #tornadorelief for Urban EcoVillage and to bring Max Grimm back to create a new mural. Max Grimm created the mural with me during at Sister Cities of Nashville, TN, exchange in 2018. Max is from our sister city of Magdeburg, Germany. More about Max Grimm here.

The print features the only section of the fence recovered after the tornado. It was found in the rubble and piles about 1/4 mile down the alley behind Smith & Lentz. Each print features the section found and a thumbnail of the former mural. Prints are only $25, $8 for shipping, through Venmo @andeerudloff

2020 What a WHIRL

Can you believe it is the last day of March 2020.? I started the year off with art residencies, murals, and exciting projects and then everything was turned on its ear. First, a tornado hit my Nashville neighborhood of East Nashville and then Covid-19 caused us all to quarantine. I found myself searching for what I could do to safely bring us together.
First, there was this incredible opportunity with Anne Bastings and Timeslips, click here for more.
Thankfully, I was able to take some of my artist residencies online. Taking residencies online has forced me to look at how people access information and how almost EVERYTHING can be done on a smart phone. I was also able to complete #tornadorelief murals at I Dream of Weenie and Jerry's Artarama. Jerry's Artarama mural pictured above and located at 713 Main Street, Nashville, TN 37206. The mural is about how we reach out and help each other after the tornado and we will help each other through #covid19 too.

Hang in there everybody. Stay safe, stay well, and #DoStuff

We are 1/2 way through 2019!

This year started out with a BANG! Three projects with VSA Kentucky at Lost River Elementary-Bowling Green, KY, Franklin-Simpson High School (FSHS)-Franklin, KY, and Memorial Elementary-Hardyville, KY. View the WNKY coverage on the FSHS projects here: FSHS Murals with Artist Andee
In the middle of those residencies, I completed a year-long residency with Timeslips-I Won't Grow Up with Wendy's Neverland. The performances included several set pieces I was able to create with the residents at Signature Healthcare communities of care in rural areas in Kentucky. More to come on this including a New York Times article. More here: Timeslips-I Won't Grow Up
No time to waste as three BIG projects with Metro Nashville Public Schools were quickly underway at Whitsitt Elementary, Glencliff Elementary, and Warner Elementary. These schools all had BIG ideas pertaining to STEAM, entrepreneurship, and the arts! Pictured above is Warner Principal Ricki Gibbs II, Artist Andee Rudloff, Congressman Jim Cooper representing the 5th District of Tennessee, and Jen-Jen Lin, Director of the Chinese Arts Alliance of Nashville at the Warner Elementary mural unveiling.
One more Metro Nashville Public School made it in to the spring work thanks to Walk Bike Nashville and Nashville Civic Design Center. Safe Amqui was successfully installed at Amqui Elementary. Enjoy the video documentation on my website or by clicking here: Safe Amqui: An Artistic Tactical Urbanism Project
Go by Shots, First Call + Pub Crawl to check out a new #BGKY mural celebrating the downtown community!
This summer brings exciting projects in Portland, Maine, and with Martha O'Bryan's Opportunity Now college preparation programs in Nashville, TN, as well as other community organizations and private businesses.

2018: New Initiatives and Thankful Journeys

2018 has been an exciting year and a year without breaks...buckle and hold on for the ride.

Andee started the year at Memorial Elementary in Hardyville, Kentucky, supported by VSA Kentucky. Andee worked with students and educators  completing several murals with plans to go back and do more in 2019. She was selected by Timeslips: I Won't Grow Up (IWGU) as an artist in residence for Region One.  IWGU is a two year effort with Signature Homes working in rural Kentucky communities of care to establish opportunities for imagination through art making...much more to come here as the conversation grows! A quick introduction here. Quickly, Andee's year had her on the road and in planes including an exciting residency in Magdeburg, Germany, supported by Sister Cities of Nashville. Things never slowed down with murals all over Kentucky including Jamestown, Hindman, Bowling Green, Morgantown, Russell Sprints, Franklin and more projects inside private businesses and homes. This fall, Andee enjoyed working with SOLO Cup and the Piligrimage Festival this fall creating a mural made of solo cups for musician Elle King. She was also happy to work with HCA Foundation and Walk Bike Nashville painting a mobile unit used to increase bicycle use in Nashville, TN. This past week, Sister Cities of Nashville welcomed two German artists and one artist from Argentina and Andee has been collaborating with them on paintings and murals in Nashville. Lots of exciting things yet to come in 2018!

Andee is very happy to share she will not only be assisting SKyPAC with 2019 Scholastic Art & Writing again from December-February, but will also serve as curator at the SKyPAC Galleries in 2019! More details and exhibit announcements to come! theskypac.com
