Andy Brooke

Andy is a visual artist and writer who enjoys all creative forms of expression and likes to observe the art of others and think seriously about it.

A college teacher of photography and art in Essex until 2018 when Andy took early retirement to concentrate on his own practice as an artist. This has predominantly been in the areas of stained glass and photographic printmaking, and some ceramic work.

Having recently moved up to Dumfries with his wife and son, he has been further exploring what is possible with his chosen media.

“I am very excited and honoured to be selected as an artist for the WWDN project and see it as a genuine opportunity for using my creative skills in a new way to help build up the community in NW Dumfries.”
