Andrew is a professional artist and tutor with a passion for painting and sketching the great outdoors. Born in London, his parents soon moved to Hertfordshire where he studied Art, Illustration and Graphic Design. He went on to have a career as a designer and art director in London.
As a child, Andrew was taken to Cornwall for many holidays which quickly became painting trips and continued every year – finally moving to Cornwall in 2013. Throughout his career in design he never lost his passion for painting, being inspired by watercolour courses with James Fletcher-Watson RI, RBA, PWS. From those early days, he developed his love of painting in the open air – and now you will be pushed to find him at home! He particularly enjoys coastal scenes.
Andrew is passionate about passing on his valuable knowledge through his workshops and demos around the UK. He is a founder member of the Pure Watercolour society.
