Andrew Barrowman
Andrew Barrowman is a painter of landscapes and seascapes working in oils. Based in West Cornwall, most of his subjects are usually discovered whilst walking his dog and often painted on location. He finds skies and winter light particularly fascinating. Andrew doesn’t have to travel far to discover interesting locations for his work. He often finds that the most interesting subjects are everyday places. Farm tracks and lanes, corners of fields, distant glimpses of the sea, views from the coast path and sunrises or sunsets seen from the beach are all painted either on location or in the studio.
