Andrew Modlin is a Los Angeles based artist whose work explores the tension between the digital and the organic, the remembered and the imagined. A graduate of UCLA’s School of the Arts, he is fascinated by the emotional power of mark-making, pattern, and layering and by the way perception shifts between what we see and what we feel.

Traveling widely, Andrew draws inspiration from landscapes around the world, sketching across different mediums to capture quick impressions of light, color, and texture. These spontaneous studies evolve into richly layered studio paintings that merge digital motifs with tactile brushwork, creating dreamlike terrains where memory and media converge. Working prolifically, he produces dozens of new works each year, constantly exploring how imagery can be distilled into recurring motifs and symbols.

Before devoting himself fully to painting, Andrew built a successful career in design and brand experience. He co-founded MedMen, the first cannabis company to integrate high design and mainstream retail strategy, leading the creative direction for more than fifty stores across the United States. That experience crafting immersive environments and shaping cultural perception continues to inform his artistic practice today, where every composition becomes an act of world-building.

He lives and works in Los Angeles, developing new series that revisit the emotional and visual language of places both real and reimagined.
