Andrew King Studio
Born and raised in Kingston, Ontario, Andrew moved to Ottawa in 1991 to study Industrial Design at Carleton University. During this time, he contributed to the Ottawa Citizen's comics page with a weekly strip entitled "Off The Wall" which was published from 1993 to 1997. A number of his comics were printed in newspapers across North America through King Features Syndicate. Andrew followed his love of cartooning and was accepted into the Television Animation program at Algonquin College where he graduated with Honours in 1997.
After graduating, Andrew began working in television with a number of local animation studios and continued his freelance design and animation work with studios in Vancouver, Montreal and Toronto. Currently Andrew resides near Westboro in Ottawa, where he continues to work as a freelance designer for animated television shows as well as doing conceptual design work for both live action and video game productions.
During the summer of 2003 while on hiatus between projects, Andrew began to paint. Utilizing his design skills, animation background and uniquely wacky brand of humour, his latest works vary from contemporary landsacpes to almost graphic cartoon style images.
His work has been featured in a number of local art shows, store displays and galleries. Andrew has completed many pieces since 2003, selling works to clients from around the world. His paintings now grace the walls of homes in places as far away as Belgium, Australia, New York City and even an embassy in Bangladesh! His work appeals to a wide range of audiences and continues to evolve as he progresses his artform.
This is called country cottage, and I really love the composition and texture of the painting.
This one is really funny. Something to do with the host trying to humour his guest with his after dinner antics.
This one is about 'nothing to do' and look at the satire and content of this painting. Lovely.
