Andie deRoux was born in Seattle Washington. As the first of three kids, Andie grew up in Madison Park and played in the Washington Park Arboretum when they were a child. Being around creative materials and people at such a young age highly influenced the artist. "I have been around art and clay for as long as I can remember. My mother always had us in her pottery making things with our hands. We held kindergarten in our basement, as it was so large, and we would make things out of paper, plaster and glue. My parents would take me to art openings and dinner parties with their artist friends. I have a lot of memories from when I was younger. I remember seeing James Turrell's inaugural exhibition of the Center On Contemporary Art in 1982 in Seattle, with my mother, when it was across from the Seattle Art Museum".
When Andie is not creating fabulous artwork, they have an innate love for all things Victorian and gothic, vintage photography and film, Rococo, dreams, abstract expressionism, deconstruction, gothic Lolita and Japanese fashion, gender and culture.
