About Andy Sargent


I am an artist who works in various ways to create new and interesting works of art. I paint, draw, photograph, sculpt, or even sew all manner of creations, that respond to the varied subjects I'm dealing with. I am never one to confine myself to a particular "style" or way of working, I create in a more fluid manner, manipulating and experimenting with various techniques and materials to create new works of art.

I am an artist who lives with permanent spinal injury, who constantly fights pain and limited mobility day in day out. Unable to keep in contact with the art world, I create my art in near total isolation from the art scene in the UK. I am an independent artist, and not represented by any gallery or agency.
​
I often have works of art for sale, and I also take in various commissions, both private and public. Please contact me for details.

"Painting is an inner struggle to convey your reaction to a subject, each time you paint becomes a journey in pigment, who knows what the result may be?"
