Working mainly in oils he strives to capture the changing light and rugged coastal
landscapes in a realistic style of painting. Painting outdoors (en plein air) helps
to achieve this, getting close to the subject and creating a first hand visual memory
that cannot be gained from purely photographic reference. Andrew is often painting
on the coast and you may see him, but usually he finds a secluded view point or a
large rock to hide behind so that the concentration is not disturbed.
Navigating through the web site you will find four galleries - coastal / seascape,
landscape / inland, wildlife and New Work. The most recent paintings (often still
wet!) are displayed in the New Work gallery. Forthcoming exhibitions and projects
are in the events section. Please enjoy your visit.
