Andy Walker is a British artist but since 2009 he has been living and
working in Southern Spain.
Andy has painted and sketched since childhood, and finally decided to
make his living from art in 2000, hand painting and firing ceramic tile
murals for commissions.
He now enjoys painting in watercolours, acrylics and oils, and wrote and
published an online watercolour course in 2005. Following the success of
this, in the following years added other online courses in acrylics, oil
painting, drawing, and watercolour pencils. Over the years he has taught
thousands of people worldwide to paint and draw from the comfort of
their own homes.
He has also taught adult painting classes for many years, and continues to run a weekly class, and while living in the
Lake District he demonstrated and lead classes for The Derwent Pencil Company. Andy is also a regular contributor to
Leisure Painter magazine.
Andy has organised and tutored painting holidays in the UK, Spain and Portugal, taking groups of people to wonderful
and beautiful locations to draw and paint.
