Andrae Green I Artist | Husband | Father | Son

It’s been a while.

The last time I posted was back in November—right as we were closing one chapter and stepping into another. Leaving Springfield, moving to Connecticut, carrying a vision that was clear in spirit… but slow and hard in the making.

Truth is, it’s been a journey.

This winter tested everything. Cold days, long nights, packing and unpacking… but real work was being laid down. I’ve got to give deep thanks to my brother Bobby DeGray, he showed up in the trenches and helped us push this thing into existence. That kind of support? You don’t forget it.

And I’ve been reflecting a lot.

On the Baustein Building studio in Holyoke, MA… the people… the energy. @susannah Izzy, Matt, Christopher, and so many others—you all became family to me. That space shaped me in ways I’m still unpacking. I carry that with me.

But there was always a deeper vision.

Before the kids… before everything got full and fast—Priya and I used to work side by side, late into the night. Same rhythm. Same fire. That quiet understanding between two people chasing something bigger than themselves.

I’ve missed that.

And now—we’re back.

Same space. Same dream. Just older, wiser, tested… and more grounded in purpose.

God is good.

You can feel it again—that subtle electricity. The ideas starting to breathe. The paint starting to move. The rhythm returning.

It’s been a slow return… but it’s real.

We’re building. We’re working. We’re keeping the brushes wet.

And this time—we’re not stopping.

More to come.

Stay with me.

Blessings and peace 🙏🏾
