“This is my 12th one-man show,” Andrew reveals. “I usually choose a theme, and this time I wanted to feature some of Malta and Gozo’s coast and the sea, boasting a variety of moods, colours and textures.”

Andrew also delves a little into how he creates his artworks. “The medium used here is generally acrylic and oils, but I start off with a number of sketches and studies plein-air and in the studio. I also have a number of photos from different angles to help get all the details.”

The new collection includes 26 new works, and they are all stunning, if we say so ourselves. Fancy seeming them for yourself? You can catch Andrew and his gorgeous new collection during his exhibition L-Ghana tax-Xtajtiet at Banca Giuratale, Independence Square in Victoria, Gozo between 1st and 24th November 2019.
