Artist and collector Andrew Tatler-Burgess<\/strong> studied art in Holland at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in The Hague, and has worked as a professional artist for over two decades. He now resides in Pelham, Georgia.\u00a0Several of his paintings are now on display on Odum Library\u2019s 2nd floor gallery.<\/p>\n

Using oils and acrylic, Tatler-Burgess captures his subjects in vivid colors and light. The 2005 film Memoirs of a Geisha<\/em> inspired his personal favorite piece, The Geisha<\/em>. \u201cHer stoic fa\u00e7ade projects intimacy to her client and hides her true emotions.\u201d<\/p>\n
