Artist Feature: The Many Voices of Andreea Daniela Ene at the Chinwe Russell Christmas Art Auction

One of the joys of curating the Chinwe Russell Christmas Art Auction is discovering artists who refuse to be confined to a single visual language. This year, I am delighted to present the work of Andreea Daniela Ene, an artist whose practice moves effortlessly between styles, emotions and interpretations of the natural world.

The auction ends with our live bidding on the 7th, and Andreea’s entries offer collectors a unique opportunity to own work from an artist who embraces freedom and variety in her creative process.

Andreea describes herself as a mixed media artist. Her foundation is in painting, but her curiosity often leads her into video, photography and performance. What anchors her work is an attentiveness to the quiet essence of the world around us. She is drawn to the subtle gestures most people overlook, the rhythm inside nature, and the atmosphere of a place when you pause long enough to truly feel it.

Her creative process starts outdoors with quick sketches made on instinct. Those simple pencil lines or small painted studies become the emotional core of her larger pieces. For Andreea, painting is a way to understand how she feels and to translate that emotion into colour, texture and movement. She does not simply record what she sees, she captures what it feels like to be present in a moment.

This sensitivity is beautifully reflected in the three works she presents in this auction. Each one reveals a completely different facet of her artistic voice.

Whispers Between Trees is a gentle study of nature, filled with layers of soft green and golden light. It invites the viewer into the quiet interior of a forest and celebrates the beauty of stillness.

Flames of Fire and the Sea shifts into expressive and dynamic abstraction. Bursts of red, blue and gold move across the canvas in waves, blending energy and emotion with a sense of wild movement. It is bold, rhythmic and full of life.

Anniversary Red Roses brings us back to the figurative. The rich red petals and deep green leaves carry a sense of intimacy and celebration. It is a romantic and uplifting work that feels both personal and timeless.

This range reveals what makes Andreea such an exciting artist to collect. She is not limited by style or subject. Instead, she allows emotion to guide the medium and the movement of the brush. Her work is alive, responsive and deeply connected to the world around her.

I am proud to include Andreea Daniela Ene in this Christmas Art Auction. Her versatility, sensitivity and expressive talent make her a standout artist in this final edition of the year.

Collectors looking for contemporary painting filled with colour, emotion and individuality will find something truly special in her work.
