Andromeda Cook's Studio

House of Purpose is a luxury home collection born from original canvas paintings by Andromeda Cook. Each piece is created to transform atmosphere, elevate everyday spaces, and introduce intentional design into the home.

My original paintings Self Love and Flower of Life are part of the Penn Medicine collection through CFEVA’s Community Exhibitions Program and are currently on display. I’m grateful for spaces that make room for art, healing, and community.

A Modern Tribute to a Timeless Voice is my 36 × 48 mixed media tribute portrait celebrating legacy, voice, and cultural power. The painting was acquired by Pennsylvania State Representative Andre D. Carroll after being exhibited at the October Gallery, one of Philadelphia’s most respected African American art spaces known for uplifting Black artists and preserving cultural history.

Pursuit of Happiness is the first paint pour I selected for my 10K Collection. The original has found its home at Brewerytown Pilates, a welcoming Philadelphia studio rooted in movement and community. Prints are available. If you are in Philadelphia, visit Brewery town Pilates and see the original in person.

The October Art Gallery recently donated and installed over 20 works of art at Parkway Northwest High School through their Free Art Wall initiative, including several of my pieces. I designed the community mural pictured here, which was brought to life by the SMART Girls mentoring program and our community. I’m grateful for every opportunity to create meaningful work and share art with schools and young people across Philadelphia.

I served as the assistant artist on this mural with lead artist Martha Rich, commissioned by Michelle Ortiz and Mural Arts Philadelphia. Having grown up right here selling shopping bags, adding artwork to this block feels like giving back to the place that shaped me.

Painting these awnings brought me back to where it all began. My family worked on 9th Street, and I grew up nearby on 11th and Carpenter. This project was an opportunity to honor a community that shaped me. Created with the Our Market Project and Mural Arts Philadelphia.

As the lead art instructor for the SMART Girls Afro-American Art and History Program, I work with young girls ages eight to thirteen, helping them explore identity, creativity, and history through art. Enrollment is still open, and every participant will receive a one hundred dollar gift card.

Destined Paths came from deep research, prayer, and pure creativity. I studied Kyrie’s story and poured everything I learned onto the canvas. Creating it felt like channeling Basquiat’s way of speaking through symbols, color, and movement. This is more than a painting. It is a story on canvas, waiting for Kyrie to sit down, look at every detail, and decode the meaning behind it. The sneaker concept takes that same energy to another level artistically, expanding the story beyond the canvas. This piece is inspired by Hollywood Africans and created with the hope that one day Kyrie Irving will experience it for himself.

While you’re here, explore my art and the stories behind it. And if you’d like to see another piece of my journey, my cameo on The Chi (Season 5, Episode 4) is still streaming on Showtime.
