Andy Lovell
Andy’s work as an illustrator and printmaker is informed by making drawings and paintings from life which are then revisited through the medium of print. The original drawings are not an end in themselves but rather aim to catch the essence of a place in a form that can be translated to print back in the studio. He is drawn to the immediacy that the screen-print and monotype processes both allow and encourage and which result in a gestural and often graphic interpretation of these initial sketches and paintings done on location that capture a real sense of mood and place.
Andy’s printmaking is represented through galleries across the UK whilst, as an illustrator he has worked on a wide range of commercial commissions, across the publishing, editorial, advertising and design sectors.
