Andrew Barker creates nature-themed, intricate, mixed-media paintings and drawings on wood and paper. His primary medium is watercolor, frequently used alongside ink, metallic paint and colored pencil. Inspired by the honest aspect of watercolor—Barker allows the natural tendencies of water to add to the character of a painting.
