Andi Rosenbaum-McCarter has been involved with art from a very young age. She grew up in Philadelphia during the rebellious Bohemian culture of the 1960's, became a hippie and was a true product of that era. Being totally immersed in the beauty, conflicts, and the surprises of nature she chose clay as her medium of expression. Andi's generosity of spirit and knowledge of her craft have enabled her to teach others to find their voices through clay. Her most excellent work is becoming more and more well-known and collected.

ARTIST'S STATEMENT
"Growing up in Philadelphia in the 60's, I was influenced by the rebellious nature of the emerging Bohemian culture. I was a hippie and very much a product of that era. I experienced the need to be liberated from the political and artistic constraints of the 50's, reflected in art, clothes, music and writing. Being outspoken back then was a way to change things. Today, some 30-odd years later, I have married, have two children, and live on Sanibel Island. Creating art out of the surprises and conflicts of nature and teaching it to others has allowed me to relate to our natural world and express beauty and serenity. The bond between human beings, animals, and the importance of our environment is what I am still concerned with all these years later." Andi McCarter, 2008
