Close and emphatic are his images

These unique depictions of animals exude a deep understanding of the artist.

Being out and about and experiencing nature is a crucial source of inspiration for Andrew, constantly informing his illustrations of the natural world. Andrew has an NDD in illustration from the Cleveland College of Art and Design. In addition to observing the cycles of Mother Nature, he enjoys looking at Jurassic fossils and Oriental antiques. Influences include Alan Hunt, Terence Lambert, Robert Bateman and Ray Harris-Ching.

Approach

Andrew paints with acrylic on board. Many of his pictures are inspired by the variety and complexity of forms, textures and colours offered by the natural world.

Style

Painting an enhanced form of realism, Andrew aims to achieve an accurate, realistic representation but with a little added something that only a painting can give.

Awards

2021 – Royal Society of Miniature Painters, Sculptors and Engravers Awards – HRH Prince of Wales Award for Outstanding Miniature Painting and the Anthony Lester Art Critic Award

Interview

What drew you to illustration/design? A love of drawing since childhood. Do you have any formal design training? H.N.D. in Illustration from Cleveland College of Art and Design. Where are you originally from? Guisborough, North Yorkshire. Where do you live now & what drew you there? In a small village by a river in the Vale of Pickering, North Yorkshire; an area I'd known since a child through family farming connections. Who or What is your biggest inspiration? Nature: endlessly inspiring! How do you get your ideas? Regular field trips and observation of nature provide me with all the inspiration I need. Do you collect anything? I'm particularly interested in Jurassic fossils but also collect corkscrews and oriental antiques. What are your interests outside of illustration? Hiking the local countryside where I love observing all aspects of nature and archaeology. What is the first record you bought? 'Fiesta' by The Pogues. Tell us about a favourite project you've recently completed. I was recently asked to complete two trompe l'oeil panels suitable for a new restaurant in the Cotswolds. I illustrated part of my own collection of corkscrews. What would be your dream job/commission? I have always wanted to do a set of stamps for the Royal Mail. If I did, I would love to do a set based on British rare breed farm animals. Who are your art heroes? I love the work of Robert Bateman, Carl Brenders and Ray Harris-Ching. Another great influence was Alan Hunt who used to live close to my home and who provided inspiration and much needed encouragement. If you were not an illustrator, what would you be? A palaeontologist or an antique furniture restorer. What's the best advice you've ever been given? Give up the ballet and stick to the art! If you could visit anywhere in the world, where would you go? Australia, I'd love to see some of their reptiles. Do you have any pets? Yes three pet rats: Sirius, Dobby and Shifty Barry. If you could travel back in time which period would you visit & why? I would visit the Jurassic era; to see pterosaurs flying overhead and see ichthyosaurs and plesiosaurs swimming in the oceans would just be amazing.
