Andy Screen

Born in Birmingham and currently living in Worcester, UK, Andy has been a professional artist and illustrator ever since he learned that being a professional artist and illustrator was a lot easier than working.

With a creative background that includes editorial illustration and design, Andy has worked for a diverse and eclectic range of clients over the years in both traditional and digital media; from piquant pin-ups to album artwork, book covers and greetings cards, his work has graced the pages of magazines and books as well as Barbie packaging where he regularly works with Mattel alongside Bob Mackie to illustrate box artwork for the signature Holiday Barbie range.

His current work is a nostalgic (some would say ‘syrupy’) return to his fine art roots; working primarily in charcoal with an emphasis on figurative art and portraiture (and occasionally dabbling with watercolour), Andy focuses on conveying the character of the subject through the dynamic nature of the medium.
