Delray Beach, Florida – Andrea Cardenal, a self-taught, third-generation Latin American artist and therapeutic art instructor, grew up in a family of opera singers, painters, and writers.
Born in the USA to a Salvadoran mother and Nicaraguan father, her childhood in El Salvador during its civil war shaped her early connection to art as a means of emotional expression. Today, her work focuses on advancing creativity as a form of emotional wellness, community-building, and cultural expression; art as a tool for resilience, meaning, and connection.
