Vivi Anderson

Artist’s Bio

Vivi has been an artist for most of her life and loves to put beauty on canvas, with vibrant colors, to inspire everyone that sees her work. The ocean has been one of her most inspiring subjects to paint, as well as colorful flowers in open fields and neighborhood gardens.

Having studied under various art instructors has helped her to develop her very own style to create a variety of artwork. Many of her paintings come from local beaches as well as the rugged coast of the Carmel area, including the Asilomar Coast. She studied for four years under Ron DiCianni, a very well-known artist. She learned to paint portraits under Ron because his philosophy is that “If you can paint faces, you can paint anything.” Through that experience, it increased her ability to paint pet portraits as well. She enjoys painting people’s pets which gives her a freedom to enjoy a variety of subjects on which to apply her artwork. If you are interested in a pet portrait you may contact Vivi at 760-889-6089 or through the gallery for a no obligation meeting to find out more.

    Raised in Europe, and moving frequently, my art was the only thing that always went with me, as much never fit into a suitcase. Therefore, I learned to pull from memories.

    Being born in Germany I was surrounded by the Woodcut Prints of Albrecht Durer, Kathie Kollwitz, Ernst Barlach, Karl Schmidt-Rottluff, and Franz Marc, just to name a few. As they did, I use special woodcut tools and shun electrical tools to stay true to the tradition.

    Joan takes a laidback approach to producing art, photography, and digital art, and tries not to think of it as ‘work.’ She enjoys the creative process, and says she is honored to be associated with artists at COAL, and in particular, photographers like Charles Dozer, whose work she greatly admires.
